Dear Rabbi Kornfeld,
I heard that Rav Soloveitchik, when asked about the doubling of Shiurim, replied that elephants don't lay eggs.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention, Harvey! I suppose that the Rav, then, did not use "Brisker" Shiurim. On the other hand, I understand that at times he quipped about something, but in practice took it into consideration. Do we have any readers who can confirm what his practice was in this matter?
Thanks, Mordecai
