Group identification

Some people find it very strange when I say things such as "Back when KAJ was in Frankfurt, we used to not have laayning at the hashkomo minyon."

They say: "What do you mean, we? When were you ever in Frankfurt?"

Well, I identify with my community. And my community was in Frankfurt until 1939ish.And what's more-- I say it entirely unselfconsciously and naturally.
