Weighted

Having just watched US show Frontlline on National Rifle Association - whole things feels hopeless with the weight of the conservative backers of guns in all hands at all costs.

(so am adding an extra of two delightful young fellows who have moved to the city and work construction; they wandered near the dock and were fascinated with houseboats - i gave them a tour and got warm hugs for that.  it all felt quite good in contrast to the other sad reality)
