Was the Nesivos was excited that Reb Akiva Eiger brought him in his teshuvos? Reb Meir Simcha because he's quoted in the Mishna Berura? I would say the same logic would apply here.
ReplyDeleteIt may be my katnus d'mochin, but in the early '80's I had an extensive correspondence with the Rivevos, and thought none of it was published, so I was very pleasantly surprised when this popped up!
ReplyDeleteNo, it's not katnus hamochin, what I meant was that it could be reasonably asserted that your stature is such that you and the Rivevos are, for citational authority, despite the age difference, peers.
ReplyDeleteI don't answer Amen to that ברכה.
