Lee, I wasn't even aware of the time or date, but knew the public memorial imminent, but I did not see it. Today is a real "news" day on CNN, but perhaps it will be covered later. I am not even a TV fan, but on Sundays when I do watch TV, I have always found Animal Planet, and have loved so many of his shows. What a down to earth lover of animals (and conservationist as well) who had real showmanship to attract non-animal lovers like me to watch his show. I first discovered that channel when we were researching ROAR 1, and now it is one of my favorites. What a loss to the whole world that we can no longer watch Steve's discoveries in the animal world, and his wonderful antics and good humor! There are so many of you Aussie's entertaining people around the world these days!
