Say what you will, but Schoolhouse Rock was very educational. Most of what I know about politics has a foundation in the "Just A Bill" cartoon. And "The Magic Number" and other math videos did more to lay out my math tables than my teachers. Looks like Dorough was a hero that I didn't know I had. RIP.

Conjuntion Junction reminds me of Clapham Junction just south of London. I was there once and counted something like 16 trains going through in 10 minutes. Kind of like parts of the video. Anyway, a great talent lost.

I have the "Schoolhouse Rock" CD boxed set and it's a real notebook! Rhino Records was always coming up with novel packaging. Bob Dorough was a really great guy, to.

Ditto, Jerry! I learned the Preamble to the Constitution from Schoolhouse Rock! Thus I was able to quote it verbatim in junior high! Still can today!!!
