Spreading the word and informing people about a topic is MUCH different than bragging about what YOU are doing.
If Steve means as much as you "say" then you would know that he believed in education rather than bragging about what he was doing. Was he popular? Yes, but it was due to him educating others that he became that way. Not by bragging and boasting, look what I am doing!
Like I said before people like you are in it for the glory. Your over in Japan b/c the cameras and press are over there now. Where was BG before the press stories hit or documentaries started? Your not there for the animals as much as you are there for yourself.
BTW Steve died in 2006............and just now you have your OMG I should do something feeling? Yep you got me convinced.......
