Handwaving were ne'er so lyrical. Unfortunately we are still no nearer
to a clue as to what Slam is...

Do you know what a slammed door sounds like?

Yes?

Well how would _you_ describe the type of sound it makes? Or would you
just find it easier to say the sound has some slam about it?

Or if you wanted to be pedantic how about, fast attack, no decay, no
sustain and a sharp release?

Well, if I were listening to recordings of doors being slammed, then
slam is what I would want to hear.

My listening is much more to do with music - without slamming doors.
