Hi Carlos,

I'm speaking of surface area. Ask any general if he would rather have
to defend a 1000 mile front or a 1 mile front. You are right that an
open port is an open port, but trying keeping the crowd out of 10000
doors is *much* harder than trying to keep them out of 100 doors.

Kind Regards,
Chris
