I tweaked the site to allow for international users.

Paypal's setup is sort of annoying; it won't let you vary shipping rates by country. If you want to do that, you have to buy software, and that really isn't sensible for me at the moment. Hence a multitude of buttons for people in different countries. Oh well.

World Wide Wrap

The World Wide Wrap was today. I was speaking at Forest Hills Jewish Center.

I wasn't very good, for a number of reasons, inexplicable stage fright amongst them.* Also, this was the first time I'd done a tefillin talk, and I pitched it wrong - I sort of didn't realise that there were people there who had no idea at all what tefillin even are. This was really, really stupid of me, because that's sort of the whole point of the World Wide Wrap. DUH. If you were there and you're reading this - sorry. I hope you got something out of it anyway. Still, I made notes of a few things I could have done, so next time I speak about tefillin, I'll do better.

W was at a New Jersey shul doing exactly the same. His went better.

* I don't usually get stage fright when I'm talking about sofrut. Weird.
