Rest In Peace - Steve Irwin

For the last 24 hours, my thoughts have been on the untimely death of Steve Irwin. It's weird, actually. I don't really watch his show with any regularity and I never saw his movie. But, if you even saw him once, any human being would feel the loss. He was so alive.

So, my heartfelt sympathies go out to his wife and children, to his endless number of fans and to the animals he loved and protected every day. His absence will be felt by the planet.

Rest in peace, Steve Irwin.
