    Honestly, I cannot believe how many forums have posted the thing about Steve Irwin. I'm a member of ALOT of forums and all within the week of the Steve Irwin incident the forums were flooded with threads and posts about it. It was unbelievable. But yeah it is a shame what happened, even though I never really watched his show.

    Well its just a damn shame the guy had to die before he got the recognition he deserves! but that's the way it usually unfolds.

    He wasn't a celebrity, he was a realist, he didn't talk the talk and walk the walk, he ran the walk and talked all sorts!

    I wasn't a FAN of sorts, rather an admirer! which is basically what everyone else was/is! Yesterdays live broadcast was the first time I actually cried over a situation like this, at first I thought it was going to be cheesy and pathetic, but it was more real than I could have hoped, and although the letter bindy read out was likely edited via adults, it was her trademark charm, and that's who she is, it ripped my heart out but at the same time, it also showed me how mature that little girl is!

    The only thing I didn't understand is who invited that constipated twat of a Prime Minister, Johnny Howard? he is the most brown nosing, pathetic SOB in power at the moment, every word he spoke I cringed and thought how long did it take for his secretary to write up that suck up, crap he dribbled!

    Anyway, RIP Steve, My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends!

    Steve irwin was very very popular, and thats why he attracted alot of attention everywhere, even on various forums. I did so happen to catch the memorial service, and it was very sad, made me cry for a bit.

    The reason that John Howard was at Steves memorial and spoke was because because the two men had a great respect for each other. http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/10/02/1064988333315.html

    Like or hate John Howard he had as much right to say good bye to a friend as anyone else had.
