<p>Over Pesach in a hotel in CA I was sitting next to someone who was not observant and, it seemed, only minimally affiliated Jewishly. I don't remember why, exactly, but I was explaining to her the phenomenon of Jewish Geography and the "two degrees of separation" rule among observant Jews in particular. She thought the concept was cool but didn't seem to completely get it. A few minutes later the young rabbinical student who was leading the seder sat down at our table and we started chatting. I knew he was at YU so I asked him if he knew a particular person, a very close friend of mine. The answer? "Of course!" I turned to the woman and said, "See?"</p>Erica commented on 'It's a small [Jewish] world!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef013480714965970c2010-05-05T13:30:06Z2010-05-05T13:30:06ZEricahttp://ericasphotoblog.wordpress.com/You tell the most lovely stories.<p>You tell the most lovely stories.</p>Ilana-Davita commented on 'It's a small [Jewish] world!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01348070b217970c2010-05-05T11:11:23Z2010-05-05T11:11:23ZIlana-Davitahttp://ilanadavita.wordpress.com/Excellent!

After that, someone I spent my year in Israel with and haven't seen since then walked into the restaurant.</p>Alissa commented on 'It's a small [Jewish] world!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef0133ed2fedfc970b2010-05-04T19:55:44Z2010-05-04T19:55:44ZAlissahttp://altmanaliyah.blogspot.com/That is such a cool story.
