Ayers Rock was taken off us and called somethink like Uluru by the new owners.

You know what's boring? Inevitability. Predictability. The remark you made was both. I was wondering which troll would be responsible for it, I didn't have you at the top of the list. I'd thought of you as a cleverer troll than that.
Originally posted by rowpcno it's not true! that's all that down here, kangaroos and crocs, and stingrays of course! and funnel web spiders, more snakes than you can shake a stick at, box jellyfish, those bloody koalas, that big rock in the middle and the funny looking bridge and opera house...
most australians have more than steve iwrin to worry about he was a inmature dangerous man who harrased animals and had not much respect for his family he wasnt much here, its the yanks that loved him and made a mountain out a mole hill.
Dont base us on people like him there is more to australia than kangeroo and crocks.

You Steve Irwin-detractors sound like the biggest morons since Flava Flav! The man did more to bring wildlife and an urgent sense of animal conservation into the world's living rooms than any Australian, or non-Australian, for that matter. "Cocodile Dundee?"...What the hell is wrong with you all? Yeah, he was part showman, but that's what caught people's attention. He wasn't monotoned like Marlin Perkins or amateurish like the American bloke that drops a snake because it lookes at him the wrong way. You Aussies criticising him should be ashamed! The man lived his life every day with nature and loved doing it! Go to your cubicles tomorrow and be the "computer dweebs" that some of you detractors are and wish you had half the talent with nature that Steve Irwin had, then go home and watch MTV or "Will and Grace". Rest in Peace, Steve. Millions of us loved watching you; too bad a lot of your fellow Aussies crapped on you, and still conntinue to do so, for lack of brains...you were an 'honorable' American as far as I'm concerned and always will be loved in the U.S. Rest easy, mate...
Originally posted by chancremechanicas an Aussie, i have to say 'well said'. Greer was the worst, but not the only Aussie detractor of Steve Irwin. Irwin was a showman, yes, but it is this quality that brought the issue of wildlife conservation to the urgent attention of many television viewers around the world. if he inspired schoolkids to take an interest in wildlife and not just games consoles and tv programs and pop music, then his efforts will have been worthwhile, and i think they were. I don't think anybody can claim without fear of ridicule that he did not have a genuine love of the wildlife he spent almost every day of his life with. in his upbringing he was fortunate to be shown to respect and love wildlife, and he tried to pass on that heritage to as many people as possible. why deride him for his enthusiasm then, or make the silly claim that he 'exploited' the wildlife? that's just idiotic. i'll bet his detractors here at rhp haven't done 1% of what Irwin did for wildlife...
