Question?

 I was wondering why you can't light Menorah candles directly. If anyone knows the answer I would greatly appreciate it. Oh and why it's not kosher to mix meat and dairy. Like what specific reason makes it a no no. Links to a place to ask would also be helpful.

You can light the candles using a match instead of the middle candle. It's just that there is one for lighting, so you might as well use it.

And the meat and dairy thing is a 'don't eat the products from the mother and the offspring' kind of thing, but wiki has no mention of that...

This has been the non-Jewish-half-Jew Information Hour.

Eh, there's a list of the birds you can and can't eat. It's more specific than the rest. No animals with hooves, no shell fish. I would imagine eggs fall under what type of bird their from. I don't think it's explicitly stated that chicken omlettes are not kosher, but I can't imagine they are.
