I'm always having to go looking for you... tsk, tsk, tsk t'me.  The sybolism of your metaphor alone is worthy of a 50 page treatise on the subject, but? You already KNOW I loved this one--I just came back to let everyone else know that I did too. It's well worth doing the research, people. Excellent work, Reb.  |

Diaspora refers to the dispersal of the Jewish people amongst the Gentiles, and generally references events between the 6-8th centuries BC. In a more general sense, it can also mean the dispersal of any group of people away from their homelands.  didn't mean to be a buddinski, Reb |
