Hello, Rabbi Tilsen,
Happy Chanukah from San Diego, CA. I'm a member of Congregation Beth Israel and on our Tikkun Social Action Committee. On Feb.4 we are planning a big event, screening Inconvenient Truth,answering with a panel of experts, then completing with an information Green Fair.
From coast to coast the time is now, respond to this critical issue for our children and grandchildren. L'Shalom, Anita Hosenpud
