Klem, I regularly place MOH winners and their stories on my Facebook wall, but in researching them, I find that a significant number of them had few, (and many times only one!) episode where they actually exhibited that amazing example of altruism. They remain heroes to me because of it, but people like Mother Teresa hold a special place because of their life long exhibition of that love for others.
I am a strong believer in having heroes, because they inspire us, but choosing those heroes is critical.

You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
