    Mr Rogers started to feed the fish on his set during the eppisodes after a little girl wrote to him worried that the fish were hungry. He made a point to make sure to feed them on camera from then on.

      Funniest thing I ever heard about him? At some point in the 90's, he published a book of fan letters written to him by children over the years. The craziest one was a child asking, "Mr. Rogers? Why is your face on the front of the penny, and your TROLLEY on the back?" I suppose at that size the Lincoln Memorial could be mistaken for the neighborhood trolley, but confusing him with Honest Abe!? Mr. Rogers never had a beard!

    Another good fact: Mr. Rogers was a strong surpporter for equeal rights during after Martin Luther King's assaination, Mr. Rogers introduced Officer Clemmons and this was a year after the show first aired. I haven't seen any of the show but I know that he was Mr. Roger's equal and this at the time it was, it was very risky and could have cost him his show but he did it anyway as a way to show people we can be better then we were then. It shows he was a truely loving and caring person and I wish I knew of him sooner *silent tears*

      There was also one instance, at a time when black people were being banned from public pools in parts of the country, that Mr. Rogers shared his little pool with Officer Clemmons on the air. Sure, it was just a little kiddie pool and they just soaked their feet in it, but the symbolism of that act at that time was very strong. Mr. Rogers even washed Officer Clemmons' feet when they were done.

    Actually, Mister Rogers played the mentor of the town preacher on Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. It was the preacher, not Mister Rogers's character, that lost the deed to the church to the man who ran the saloon and was planning on turning it into a brothel. It was only when Rogers's character showed up that the new proprietor had a change of heart and let the town preacher have an extension on the loan he owed.
