Tim Treadwell and his girlfriend were eaten by a grizzly bear a year or so ago.

I just read about Timothy Treadwell. I can honestly say that I'm horribly saddened by this story. Sounds like the man was deranged and no one stopped him from his not-necessarily unintentional suicide. Even worse was that he took along his girlfriend who wasn't really into bears as desert.

"...Katmai National Park & Preserve in Alaska. On the night of October 5th or early the morning of the 6th Treadwell apparently left his tent to confront a bear in their campsite. Treadwell, or Amie, had their video camera rolling, but with the lens cap on, this allowed only for an audio recording of what happened next. From descriptions of the audio tape we know he was attacked only a few feet from his tent and can be heard calling for Amie. She comes to his aid and can be heard hitting the bear with a frying pan. When that doesn't stop the attack, Treadwell can be heard telling her to run. We don't know if she did, but we do know that the bear attacked and killed her as well."

Very sad. Still, there's a very big difference between Disney's "Winnie the Pooh" and a 2,000 lb predator that thinks your might tastier than salmon.

What am I to say?

"It is unbearable."?

I'll repeat my plan to have fun with the left:
-Equip an RV-type vehicle as a mobile animal hospital.
-Set traps to capture animals on the endangered species list.
-Release all males and non-pregnant females immediately.
-For pregnant females, abort their litters in the mobile animal hospital, then release them.
-Laugh as hard as you like when the left complains that this kills endangered species animals but human abortions only remove "tissue blobs".
