    A sad day.

    A mother once took her 4 year old son to see Mr. Rogers at an event. The boy had a toy sword which he would not let go, no matter how much hi mother tried to convince him to do so. Mr. Rogers knelt down and spoke to the boy, who then turned and gave the sword to his mother.

    "What did you tell him?" asked the mother.

    "It's not the sword that makes you strong."


    A class act all the way, this guy. 30 years and 900 episodes of quality kids' programs.

    There are so many amazing things he has done for children. Even Sesamy Street (sp?) has lost its touch

    When I was a kid I would watch him every morning. I even told my mom that I wanted to visit him one day. His show was one of the quality childrens shows still on that taught values and didnt switch to high action cartoons. *Salutes*
