3706 Back into Honduras.  (2nd time)
3706 No, not all consulates (of one same country) are alike.
3707 First contact with San Salvador, by radio: the Goldberg Variations.
3708 Strongly armed and vexing roadblocks: five, in 156 kilometers.
3708 Copán, archaeolgical site.
3713 Archaeological research laboratory.
3716 Copán, symbol of the enslavement of humankind:
     before, open-access welcome; now, constricting steel passageway and gate; >>>>>before, silence to meditate by; now, permanent lawn-mower racket.
3717 A learned dissertation on "zoomorphic turtle" or on "altar is a throne"; >>>>>safe guess where it comes from.
3718 Another case of scientific arrogance.
3718 Worry: guerrilla in El Salvador, where we are to be soon.
3719 Yes, jumping spiders.
3721/3746 Summary of the Mayan culture.
3743 Crotalic element in Mayan art.
3746 Again, preparing "war tributes", just in case.
3746 Worry: leak in steering.
3747 Betraying, insulting own national identity.
3748 Children, a plague.
3749 Impossible to enter into El Salvador:
     country paralyzed by guerrilla imposition.
3751 Even out of Honduras is long and expensive.
