And maybe a short explanation of what these 'weights' are all about?  Does 
that just mean that when i search for something, archives results will 
always preceed varlena's?  And, if so, and we are only doing archives vs 
varlena, as long as archives is weighted higher then varlena, does it 
matter what the weights are?  Could be 1 + 2, no?
