You have ignored the part about Chalav Yisroel not being available in
one's neighborhood. This is not for a short time
generally.<br><br>

You are disregarding the email response I received. Rav Breuer held
keeping Chalav Yisroel was a halacha, not a chumra, as the response
says.<br><br>
<font size=3>In light of this I think that you have to modify what you
wrote in your article on Aspaqlaria regarding Rav Breuer's position on
drinking only Chalav Yisroel if it is available. <br><br>
Also, apparently your Passaic sources about his position are in
error.<br><br>
