(CBS News) And now a page from our Sunday Morning Almanac. . . November 25th, 1940, 72 years ago today, a date that will live in cartoon history. For that was the day Woody Woodpecker made his big-screen debut, as a guest star in an Andy Panda cartoon called "Knock Knock." Woody was the creation of animator Walter Lantz, who told his children's TV show audience many years later that the character was inspired by the incessant knocking he once heard on the roof of his country cabin: "Yes, it was a big, red-headed woodpecker banging on the roof as if his life depended on it," Lantz recalled.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
