Theodore F. Stevens, referred to affectionately by Alaskans as "Uncle Ted", was a Republican U.S. Senator from the state of Alaska, serving from December 24th 1968, to January 3rd, 2009. He was formerly the longest serving Republican U.S. Senator in history, as well as currently being the most senior U.S. Senator to lose re-election. He is famous for his Series of Tubes quote, which brought him wide-spread ridicule on the Internet, namely the blogo-sphere. He was very successful in developing Alaska, with Alaskans nicknaming federal dollars brought to the state for it's development "Stevens money". He died on August 9th, 2010, in a plane crash that killed 5 and injured 4.
