Fred Rogers testifies

 * Reason:Mister Rogers' Neighborhood is a major cultural artifact but unfortunately for us it will remain under copyright for another 40+ years. Fred Rogers had a very distinct manner of speech that is difficult to truly understand unless you see and hear it. This video serves to demonstrate that very well. It also offers many encyclopedic details including explaining how his public broadcast show was funded. To boot, Rogers recites the lyrics to one of his songs, lays out in a few sentence his point of view on childhood psychological development, mental health, and how he incorporates that into his programming. Rogers was a great man, ahead of his time, and this video perfectly encapsulates his work. Watch it to the end for a happy ending.
