The worshippers move out, the ceiling falls in. What to do?

Here's one person's take on what to do from this Friday's (February 3) The 
Wall Street Journal's OpinionJournal.com weekly religion column:

My maternal great-grandparents worshipped at the Roumanian-American Synagogue 
on Rivington Street on NYC's Lower East Side.  My maternal great-grandfather 
spoke 4 or 5 languages and was a translator for Teddy Roosevelt when TR spoke 
in the area.
