Yigal,

We went to the movie, not the least, because we are on friendly terms with the parents of the comedian Tal Friedman (ESHET LOT). I know you think the movie is a work of fiction, but so is, in my opinion, Professor Blau's book. I suspect that you think the existence of a casino in SDOM farfetched and implausible, but this is what I think of the assumption that the dagesh "forte" marks the "doubling" of a consonant.

Dear Isaac,

I hope, you're not being serious. By "there" do you mean ancient Sodom or
modern Israel? I haven't seen the movie, but it got terrible reviews in the
Israeli press, as a failed attempt at social satire. Nobody, including the
producers, claims that it represents anything historical.

I have not read the learned paper by Dr David Elgavish but I saw last night
the Israeli movie ZOHI SDOM, which gave me an excellent insight into life
there.
