This time I paid a visit to the nice folks at "Suspension of Disbelief". The topic was the recent issue of Action Comics featuring SUperman going to someone's house for Friday Night Shabbos dinner.

nice article. I would only nitpick your nitpicking in that even people passingly familiar with jewish traditions sometimes screw things up. I have a freind who is orthodox and even though I know many of the customs and what not to do, I made the mistake of ringing the doorbell on Saturday when visiting. I even made the graver error of turning on a light as I went into their kitchen. So ringing the bell and brigning flowers are realistic mistakes that a goyum (sp? jewish for first up against the wall when the revolution comes) can make. Even one who is passingly familiar with the orthodox way of doing things. Although I did catch the headscarf not being on at the end there.

Nitpicking the nitpicker

This is not, as some might think, a Menorah. It’s a Chanukiah.Could you explain, again please, the difference between a Menorah and a Chanukiah
