Learning Gemara at Hadar again this summer. The classrooms are next to each other, separated by thin walls.
We're talking about the first mishnah in the tenth perek of Pesachim, ערב פסחים סמוך למנחה, לא יאכל אדם עד שתחשך. אפילו עני שבישראל, לא יאכל עד שיסב; לא יפחתו לו מארבעה כוסות של יין, ואפילו מן התמחוי.
"Samuch l'mincha," says Rav Eitan. "What's that mean?"
Silence.
"Anyone?"
In the silence, Rav Elie's voice comes through the wall from the next room, where he is teaching his own class.
"Samuch l'mincha?"
Laughter.
