So far, of course, the sheratzim-in-the-water scandal hasn't quite taken off in the same way as the wig controversy (although the NYT does say that “officials at Yeshiva Toras Emes Kamenitz elementary school have spent hundreds of dollars installing plumbing gear behind the walls to filter the drinking water,” and that “Saul Kessler, who sells wholesale water filters and installs full-home filtration systems in Queens, said he has gotten 100 phone calls from homeowners."). But you know what they say about a picture being worth 1,000 words....
