"Judge Chooses San Mateo County as Site of Murder Trial"

[randomness]

Saw this article and thought of you guys who live in San Mateo County, and particularly those of you who live in Redwood City:

http://news.google.com/url?ntc=0M2B0&q=http://www.nytimes.com/2004/01/21/national/21PETE.html

"Tourism officials in San Mateo County cheered wildly on Tuesday when a judge announced that the murder trial of Scott Peterson would be moved there.

"'You couldn't hear us screaming?' asked Anne LeClair, president and chief executive of the San Mateo County Convention and Visitors Bureau, which is in Burlingame, about 15 miles south of San Francisco. 'This is wonderful.'"

If you ask me, the reaction's a bit crass, but hey, I'm no tourism official.

Anyway, good luck with the media circus.

Yeah, I was thinking most of you don't actually live *too* close to all that and don't have reason to go there often.
