=====
"At the center of the Universe is a loving heart that continues to 
beat and that wants the best for every person.  Anything that we can 
do to help foster the intellect and spirit and emotional growth of 
our fellow human beings, that is our job. Those of us who have this 
particular vision must continue against all odds.  Life is for 
service."
  -- Fred Rogers (a.k.a., "Mister Rogers") 1928-2003
