The Magical Ingredient

I think I've found the magical ingredient for generating tons of comments on LJ, at least among my friend- circle, and it is very simple-

Talk about head-covering and/or ritual-wear and gender.

I guess people with those interests tend to congregate.

I think other halakhic concerns might get close- so, here's one I need to do some research into- what has the status of a shoe, and the acceptability going barefoot during (davening on) Yom Kippur.

OK, you're talking about hatam_soferet's latest post.

I found the first paragraph of hir post-- about the proper tune for פסוקי דזמרא on YK-- to be far more interesting than the second paragraph. I was disappointed that nobody else seemed to care. I kept looking back to see whether there were any new comments on that first paragraph, yet there were not.

There's rather less to say about it, one would conclude. Any interesting conversation would feature things it's hard to do in an exclusively text format.
