Well hello Derrick and Bob and whoever else is lurking in the back-ground. I had a problem with a URL sent to me by YAHOO instructing me on bouncing e-mails in those goups that is thru them. Guess what ?? They gave me a virus that Norton picked up and deleted. I complained to them ,but so far have heard nothing back.  I don't know if anybody was aware that WQED in Pittsburgh,after getting requests for for a video keepsake of Fred Rogers ( Mr.Rogers) They had none !! But now,according to my local paper in Calif., a 3 hour release called 'Fred Rogers: America's Favorite Neighbor' is now available to those that want it. It has serious stuff such as the 1969 Senate hearing , and unpredictable as when 'Neighborhood ' staffer Betsey Seamans suggested having a chimpanze visit the show ! The animal wreaked havock,knocking over furniture and fake trees,knawing on Betsey's kneecap and swinging from the lighting fixtures !!! Narrated by Michael Keaton,former member of WQED floor crew where he operated the Trolley and Picture-picture hosts and narrates the tribute. If ever there was a perfect marriage of host and subject matter, this is it! ( Quoting from paper)   go to www.wqed.org or call 1-800-274-1307 for either DVD or 2 tape set 3 hrs long for $24.95 to benefit childrens programing and Fred Rogers fund.
