Comments on: Crocodile Hunter news hits the web (and what Scott Adams said about it) http://www.geekrant.org/2006/09/06/crocodile-hunter/ Fri, 27 Jan 2012 05:44:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Dev http://www.geekrant.org/2006/09/06/crocodile-hunter/comment-page-1/#comment-6094 Dev Tue, 12 Sep 2006 02:01:27 +0000 http://www.geekrant.org/?p=798#comment-6094 I think it's a bit sad that Scott Adams' comments were removed. Heaven forbid that not all of us think or feel the same about a situation. Personally I like what he wrote as I am one of the minority (it seems) who believed Steve Irwin to be a jerk.

Another risk is that people will think it's funny. I think Steve Irwin has been adequately compensated in advance for any amount of mickey-taking about his demise. (Likewise Peter Brock, by the way, a racing driver who died in a smash about the same time.) Somewhere a stingray is saying: "How did _I_ know he had a special rapport with animals! Nobody told ME!"
