Jed Lewison put up a Diary today noting that Mitt wanted to start pimping out PBS and selling ads.
Now I am a geek of a pretty high order. My gut is most of you have not seen this video. A few weeks ago it exploded in the geeky sites I visit. Take Mister Rodgers and autotune him. I actually wonder why it took this long for this to happen :).
The video below the fold. But it needs to be stressed this was done in-house by PBS. They have a Digital Studio divison. They are trying hard to be "hip" and honestly they got a lot of material to work with. If you are having a "bad" day I swear this video will make it better.
The YouTube notes say:
Mister Rogers remixed by Symphony of Science's John D. Boswell for PBS Digital Studios. *If you like this video, please support your local PBS station.*

(Headphones highly recommended!)
When we discovered video mash-up artist John D. Boswell, aka melodysheep, on YouTube, we immediately wanted to work together. Turns out that he is a huge Mister Rogers Neighborhood fan, and was thrilled at the chance to pay tribute to one of our heroes. Both PBS and the Fred Rogers Company hope you like John's celebration of Fred Rogers' message.
This is the first in a series of PBS icons remixed.
Many thanks to the folks at the Fred Rogers Company for their support.
I both danced around my house hearing this and shed a tear. It pains me kids might not have the chance to see this stuff.
