Thanks so much for all your input on this article, it's looking great. There was just one thing I wanted to clarify. I didn't phrase the "shaliach tizbbur 'feeds' the words to the cohanim" because feeds isn't a literal expression and someone who doesn't know what birkat cohanim looks like won't understand. (It seems to me to be a more yeshivish term than a proper expression). I'd prefer to use a literal explanation, such as "the shaliach tizbbur says the words of birkat cohanim, one at a time, and the cohanim repeat each word after the sheliach tzibbur. I'm not looking to cause a fight but trying to improve the site. If you still disagree, please explain your thought. Thanks. -Ike Sultan
