I saw this last night before I went to bed, and it saddened me......even as an american. I think Irwin was a great man who loved his work and loved teaching. You cant ask more out of a man.

I saw it in 3 other threads here at TG yesterday, and it saddened me more than the death of multiple kittens.
Peace through fear... since 1947!
