Oops. THIS my last post today. The whole point was to correct some ignorant
header, to have it resent as it was sent to me! JLS (I don't mean R. Paul
ignorant; quite the contrary, he _corrected_ the ignorant header)

Right. It _is_ odd. "Porta" has various meanings. Oddly, in the masculine,
"porto", it is harbour, as in Buenos Ayres (vide "The Road to Buenos
Ayres").
>that could be opened and shut.
Indeed. On the other hand, St. Paul has the keys to heaven. Makes you
wonder indeed which one is the jail.
As Wager notes, "the greatest evil is an imagination", or words to that
effect.

ps. My last post today, so don't provoke me.
