Steve Irwin

I'm really sad about Steve Irwin.  It's hard to believe that he's dead.  It's especially hard to believe that it was caused by a stingray.  They're supposed to be really pretty harmless, especially compared to all the other deadly things in Australia.  

He was swimming at the Great Barrier Reef near Port Douglas, which is where we went on our Australia trip.  Apparently, the stingray stung him in the chest.  It happened to another diver a while back, several years ago.
