Where Everybody Knows Your NameFormer President Bill Clinton paid a visit to Hollywood yesterday to speak at a fundraising dinner for the American Oceans Campaign. Leonardo DiCaprio, Barbra Streisand, Dennis Quaid, Rhea Perlman, and other stars were on hand to honor the president for his past environmental work. The event raised $600,000 for American Oceans, which was founded by the actor Ted Danson. Clinton spent most of his 45-minute speech talking about the September terrorist attacks, concluding by saying, "Don't lose heart. Just go on -- and save oceans while you're at it."
