Wonderful, talented guy - who had a huge influence on education, especially early childhood ed which is all important. I loved his thought on why one needs a sense of humor "if you can see things out of whack than you can see how things can be in whack". A lot of truth in that. The movie and TV show *M*A*S*H is a good example of that. Tonight I am celebrating the life of Mary Travers singer of the trio Peter, Paul & Mary. This trio had a lot to do with my generation before the Beatles revolution. The harmony is fantastic. Dad and I played Peter, Paul and Mommy CD because that's all we could find. Those songs influenced your generation, in particular you kids in our family. It was played a lot ("we're going to the zoo,zoo,zoo, we going to the zoo, zoo, zoo, how about you, you, you", etc. and "Puff the magic dragon, lived in the sea ...") Those songs paved the way for other harmonies and set the stage for further music appreciation. You would not be where you are today, if it wasn't for songs and trios like that.
