It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

Many thanks, Padraig. I exaggerate just a little, though demonstrations of this kind are a bit beyond me - the police were expressing concern about public safety with so many people expected, so I didn't want to add to their problems. At least I can donate to the reinstatement of College Green which was left a complete quagmire - it could have been Glastonbury.It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal.
