<p>> Is my not going for it perhaps a sign that<br>
you were right in your "Hazakein" title? <<br>
I leave to you any interpretation of your hashgachah p'ratis, but if I was so impudent as to choose an adjectival description appropriate to symptoms of "middle age," "haZaqein" would not have been the chosen word. <br>
<br>
> Hazakein?? The only one who can call me that is the<br>
other DB. An MP is in a different category. <<br>
As best as I recall, even RDB the Younger only labeled himself, never others. I merely wished to bestow kavod upon one deserving of it. <br>

> I have no Roedelheimer Tefilla, as the Yekkes call it,<br>
except for in the back of my 1817 Roedelheim "me'iti"chumash<br>
and 1850 or so "me'et" machzor where I am quite certain that<br>
it was ha-shelucha. <<br>
B'li neder, I'll check any old prints I may have. <br>
<br>
> I am horrified to discover that some Yekke who re-printed the heiligge Roedelheim editions had<br>
the nerve to change a word! Would Basel do that? <<br>
Basel, lo; Goldschmidt, lamah lo? :)<br>

is in Ata Yatzarta in Shabbat rosh chodesh. <<br>
Well, I was checking that area of the siddur this morning. B'li neder, I'll check more carefully as soon as I can. Thanks!<br>
<br>
All the best from <br>
