Well anonymous@217157 there's a fly in the ointment regarding the logic in your above statement since my handle / alias is indeed my name and is only preceeded by "mr" to keep folks from incorrectly playing the "assuming game" about my gender. Of cousre it's about the type of intelligence level I'd expect from someone too intellectually challenged/lazy or worried that others here would actually be able to track their comments and add some sort of continuity to their statements if they were to generate some type of moniker for themselves here.

Now then, to the real discussion here, sure he pissed off dangerous animals for a living in his work. He also brought the dangers of such beasts to the forefront while debunking other eronious ideas and always with education of such as a backdrop. I'd say all in all he did much more good in his career than harm and as such deserves a bit more respect than a lot of the fuckwitted comments I've seen posted.
