He was Pope of the Roman Catholic Church from 461 to 468. He was canonized after his death. Perhaps he died as a result of not lowering his restraint bar and the speaker system was installed in his honor?

Ahh... finally. The silent "o". It all makes sense to me now.

I'm bringing this up to the top, because I was wondering if anyone knew anything about European safety bar codes. The Frenchies on remontees-mecaniques.net are shocked that people don't use the bar, and even more shocked that some chairlifts do not have safety bars.
