Many thanks for your participation in the Voiceless EyeLevel topic 'How much is cheap meat really costing us?'. I am hopeful that this will generate greater awareness of the severe health, environmental and moral ramifications of factory farming.
Best wishes. Jeremy Richman 22.5.13

Dear Michael, I have just watched the documentary 'Michael Kirby' on ABC1 and I can happily say 'I was suffering from insomnia otherwise I would have bloody missed it!'

What an amazing life and career you have, truly inspirational, clearly an enthusiastic campaigner and Advocate for Equality and basic Human Rights! If I may sir; In the words of your father spoken in the documentary; 'you have got to do what's right for your children!' You have done right for a great number of children and adults alike!

My partner Leon & I wish nothing but the best this life offers you and your beloved partner Johan.

Can't wait to see and hear you at St Marys today! I never thought to have you so close!

It was a great privilege to interview you in Albury today. Your passion for equality truly is inspiring!

I just heard you speak at Newington College and apart from enjoying your very entertaining chat, have felt inspired to think a bit more about the big, hard ethics issues we're dealing with. Agree we live in a very privileged country and it would be a shame to be a country known for its inhospitable treatment of people in need. Thanks again. I hope my kids take up the invitation to be 'joiners' and speak out.

As a current student studying politics and law I admire you and your known 'activist' approach which i see entirely necessary to Australia's changing society which our political system seems out of touch with.

I recently listened to an interview with you on NZ radio and thought, fantastic! At last, a respected member of the legal fraterniy is supporting animal rights. To my mind, this is long overdue and we cannot call ourselves a civilised society until this issue is fully addressed. Go Judge Kirby, for all it's worth! And know that you have many supporters behind you.

Dear Justice Kirby, I just wanted express my sincere gratitude including my wife & children for availing me in situations where I may Have lost my composure & thought processes in complex tax law matters or life generally. I have never considered your sexuality for one moment, but I have always considered your, intellect, wisdom & great legal mind. In addition to that the way you hold yourself In life generally, with such a dignified & humble persona.Your a credit to your profession & a greater credit to life & humanity. Thanks for enriching my life. Anthony.

Dear Justice Kirby, thank you for your wonderful speech and insight into one of the most debated topics of our society - Leadership and Influence at the ANU Law College today. I hope you continue to keep the judicial activism in years to come and the balanced intellecutal arguments that comes with your approach. As a nation we needed it for our future reasoning of just society.

As an academic toiling away on problems of tort law, I pay respect to the exemplary way in which you researched and wrote your judgments in that area - certainly on par with the greats such as Dixon, Kitto and Windeyer.
