I perceive that someone will tell you anyway, and, yes, it's me: Scott Peterson's only claim to fame is being accused (and now, convicted and sentenced to death) in the murder of his wife on Christmas eve, two years ago. She was 8+ months pregnant at the time. Peterson was having an affair, telling his ladyfriend he wasn't married, and feeding her all sorts of malarkey after his wife's "disappearance" -- and being recorded by a wire tap.
The trial (and the following brief penalty phase) completed just weeks ago.
The fertilizer salesman was previously unknown to the world. And, apparently, almost so to his wife and at least three mistresses.
And... We mobilized a substantial military response to the tsunami immediately -- our troops are delivering food and supplies round the clock and have been since hours after the waves struck.
The US is pledging some $335 million so far, not counting our aid organizations -- and not counting our emergency actions supported by the military airlift going on now.
