Greetings
Attached is a message which raises two interesting assertions relative to the date of Passover:
1. The climate of the world has changed in the last few thousand years and therefore the state of Barley may not be a reliable indicator. It is suggested that the time of blossoming and other natural phenomena has spread out and may be earlier today than thousands of years ago.
2. Barley and other grasses have been genetically altered and it is possible that the Barley that is aviv has been affected by this such that it ripens earlier.
These are two arguments against determining the date of Passover based on the state of Barley ears that i have not encountered previously and which further indicate how challenging the current debate actually is.
Warm regards and blessings
