re: #327 Alouette

I walked near a schul down in Chelsea, by the way, and ran into some very nice Chabad guys standing outside getting ready to study. They were asking passer-bys (who looked Jewish) if they wanted to come study with them; is this kind of (very polite and sweet) proselytizing a Chabad thing, or are these dudes just doing their own deal?

They were very gracious when I said no, and they were fun to talk to. Nice eager young guys, exuberant.
