Interesting. Never been to Rav Stern's shiur, but I could probably ask a friend. Does he let people record the lectures?
Watch your keyboard! ;) ....once I was in there fixing your typos, I also fixed a coupla spelling errors, hope you don't mind. If you do (though I don't see why you would), you can always fix that by editing your answer again.
Also, you might consider registering your account, which will give you access to more of the site's features.
