No worries Hammer...I been called a lot worse and in truth I can be an asshole and maybe I am on this one. It's OK I can cop to that.

I like to write or speak and make people think about things...or get them passionate.

The funny thing is that what I wrote wasn't incorrect and I suspect few would disagree that emulating Steve in the wild is asking for trouble. Remember the line about leaving only your footprints?

The thing everyone got upset with was because I referred to a dead guy as a dumbass, a dumb motherfucker and a moron and said he deserved what he got.

OK lets toss the incendiary labels. I have seen the mans show I have seen and read interviews with him and he has been bitten, stung, attacked, kicked and everything else many times and he always said he deserved it, so I doubt even Steve would disagree that he deserved what he got...I don't claim to speak for the man but he has generally done enough of it on his own.
