An unlikely scenario, but even if it were the case - our ancestors didn't worry about such things. The idea that they did is a Haredi invention.

You can do it the way our grandparents did - going by ingredients, before the black hats showed up and intimidated them into believing they'd been doing it all wrong.

Or just stick to OU.

undesired elements will not be able to disrupt the connection

What "undesired elements"? Women? Frei yidden?

The Ynet article (http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4176971,00.html) used this in its header: "It'll help locate haredi disaster victims and missing people crying for help in Yiddish"

What's a "haredi disaster victim"?

"Help! Someone isn't dressed tzniusdik enough! Oy, nebech!"

or

"I ate a piece of unwashed lettuce! Gevalt!"

Meanwhile, if the dog is a female, does it have to ride in the back of the fire truck?

More importantly - have they trained it to cross the street if it sees a male dog approaching?

Please. You're a walking compendium of cliches.

Orthodoxy, under Haredi hegemony, is self-destructing. It very likely hasn't got as much as a generation left, and its leaders are aware of it.

After everything he went through, including have the rest of the evangelical world turn against him, and despite the fact that he claims to be proud of his son who affirms gay marriage - he's learned absolutely nothing.

There is no changing these people. Any attempt to do so is a waste of time. The only way to insure America's continuity would be to marginalize them, if there were still time. Tragically, it's too late for that; as they've spent the past thirty years commandeering the political process. This is the reason we're finished.

Ruth Messinger of AJWS, who doesn't stop for a moment, makes $250K, while Federation presidents who do nothing but show up for a board meeting now and again are getting $600K - $700K. There are just no words.

No, wait – the Jewish community is unsalvageable.

OK, now there are no words.

The net result of this will be that those who follow the original traditions of Judaism will not even remotely accept the legitimacy of the other two streams of the religion.

I object to your use of the term "original", as much (if not most) of what the Orthodox think of as Orthodoxy was concocted over the past sixty years. However, that aside - when has "Orthodoxy" ever accepted the other denominations as being even remotely "legitimate"?

There will be Torah Judaism and there will be Reform and Conservative Judaism.

That ship has sailed. We now have two distinct religions, each calling itself "Judaism". It's time to acknowledge this, and move on.

Yes, of course. "Something I don't want to hear" = a lie.
