...Sets limits on the use of classifications higher than TOP SECRET. In the past, officials have put their most sensitive documents in these nameless cubbyholes, keeping them out of the public eye indefinitely. No one knows how many of them exist.

...still hopeful that Moro's life may be spared. Nonetheless, Caritas last week closed its switchboard at night, no longer seeing the need to listen 24 hours a day for a possible signal from the kidnapers. Its well-advertised phone number had been dialed only by cranks or nameless volunteers offering to replace Moro as a hostage.

So if you're expecting a witty, urbane and informative column on the current state of the Boston theater, forget...

Wandering through a nameless country (perhaps the U.S.), he is jostled by the authorities (the leftists), losing one suitcase to them while his other two grow heavier and heavier (his conscience?).
