I want to load my passport, not me!!

This is the code for making saving and loading a player's passport:
Player
    var
        Passport/Passport
    Login()
        ..()
        src.Passport = load("Player/[src.key]/Passport")
        if(Passport == null)
            Passport = new /Passport (null)
            Passport.Owner = src
    Logout()
        save("Player/[src.key]/Passport",src.Passport)
        ..()
        del src

However, instead of loading the passport it loads my mob. In fact, it does not load the passport at all. Here are the save and load procs, if they matter:
proc
    save(var/path = "",var/input)
        var/savefile/S = new("DitMUD.sav")
        S[path] << input
    load(var/path)
        var/savefile/S = new("DitMUD.sav")
        return S[path]

Thanks in advance!

I hate to bump a post, but it's been some time and it does not look like anybody's going to answer at this rate. The problem is consistant and quite annoying. Thanks again.

I don't see where it would be loading the mob, but one thing I do see: You don't use the >> operator anywhere in your load routine. I would think that would be necessary.

Try this:
proc
  load(var/path)
    var/savefile/S = new("DitMUD.sav")
    var/item
    S[path] >> item
    return item
