That video almost made me cry. Fred Rogers was a great guy.
I remember seeing him on a show a few years ago, something similar to punked, where they took the TVs out of celebrity hotel rooms and told the guests that they were out for service, that they couldn't have a TV during the stay.
The celebs were, with only one exception, outraged. Except Fred Rogers.. he just said, "No big deal, I see too much TV anyway."
They kept trying to get a rise out of him, he didn't even notice. He just said he'd read a book or go out, no biggie, he'd seen enough TV.
