Today, I read the Wikipedia entry for Fred Rogers and cried about his passing all over again.

It seems, from all the information I can find, that he was a genuinely good person. And it seems that there are so few genuinely good people in the world. It feels sometimes like we have to be aware that any person, given the opportunity, will take advantage of another for his or her personal gain.

I feel like self-sacrifice shouldn't be the exception, but the rule.

Have a good day today, and try and be good. :)

First post using Dasher!

It's a new text input program for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Pocket PC devices, among others. It's a very interesting thing, to be sure. I know I'm having fun with it, anyway.

It seems to have the potential to entirely eliminate spelling errors, and it actually feels a lot like playing a game when you're using it. Very strange, I can actually see myself using this with my touchscreen cell phone a lot, depending on how quickly I can get used to it.

Again, I'll throw up a more substantial post a little later, this was just too good an opportunity to pass up. Hehe.

Get dasher here.
