By the mighty Hammer Of Thor, it works.  I don't understand why my remote curl 
or nc attempts didn't work.

When using:  Web(DNAT)    loc   dmz   -     -     -       50.35.109.212
... is that last 50.35.109.212 necessary? (It may change periodically)  If 
necessary, can I somehow enter it here as a system variable?

I haven't been able to get SSL running as certbot (LetsEncrypt) couldn't verify 
my domain.  But now it should be able to.
