For those of us who knew Everett, we know that he always seemed to be a little bit ahead of his time. Naomi once commented that she still can’t believe that people willingly eat kale, when she was forced to consume the tough green throughout her childhood.
I recently came across an article referencing Rabbi Gendler of which I was not previously aware. I hope you enjoy reading the article below, “The Hottest Synagogue Trend? Going Solar.” It references Everett’s influence on the world with his invention of the solar ner tamid.
Wishing you all a happy Tu B’Shevat.
Who knows, perhaps wool ponchos will be the next hottest trend.
