	Well, I am glad to here that pogroms do not take place in
the Soviet Union, Stalin was not as bad as some Tsars, and currently
Jews are only "persecuted and surpressed."   Maybe I'll take my next
vacation in Siberia, I here that the skiing there is pretty good.
Oh, by the way, do you know where I can get a good corned beef
sandwich this Saturday?
	Now I really know what Yaqim means by ignorant-assimilated-
askenazim-dreck.
Shalom,
