San Francisco is celebrating an effort to save lives.  Leaders gathered yesterday to mark the completion of safety nets on the Golden Gate Bridge aimed at stopping suicides.  While they give people a second chance, former House speaker Nancy Pelosi says they’re a reminder to talk about mental health.  Every year, around 30 people die jumping off the bridge.  Advocates say if they could prevent just one, all their work will be worth it.
