Dear Mordecai,

I'm thrilled and grateful for your enlightening comments, especially that one at my posting on Chelm

http://hauster.blogspot.com/2018/08/which-is-more-important-sun-or-moon.html

which took us straight back to Czernowitz and to the Schiller Park. Thank you so much, it's highly appreciated.

> Two wise men of Chelm observed that there are moonlit nights in Chelm, that lacked streetlights at that time, as well as moonless nights. They thought a lot and discovered the reflection of the moon in a water filled barrel, The Eureka thought struck both at the same time, and they speedily put the lid on the barrel to trap the moon for the moonless nights.
