Capitol: I think of this as a "Law Factory." That's what they make here, laws. Courtesy of our Senator, Patty Murry, we were able to visit both the House and the Senate - which were in session. Completely wierd - although in session the House was completely empty. The Senate had one Senator "testifying" before an empty chamber but in front of a TV camera. I saw the coverage later on TV - testimony about an FAA issue - you'd never know from TV the Senate was EMPTY. My tax dollars at work.
