Did you know that George Soros now has his own blog? He doesn’t quite seem to have grasped the interactivity of the medium yet but it’s not a bad start. He even links to Dean Esmay which is how so many of us did get started. There is an email link to that you can talk to the great man, so this is what I sent:

Dear Mr Soros,
Re: your advertising on Republican blogs (although I wouldn’t describe Dean Esmay as such) I do get the point, that you wish to preach to the unconverted, not the choir.
This leaves me with only one question, why aren’t you advertising on mine?
Over the years I worked in Eastern Europe and Russia I never quite managed to latch onto any of the funds you were heaving about with gay abandon, I’m also reasonably certain that I won’t get past your gatekeepers to present our funding needs for a Rhenium factory in Kazakhstan.
All that is left to me is to point out that BlogAds at my site are most reasonably priced, $10 a week, and I assure you that I and my readers are most definitely to be counted amongst the unconverted. As yet, of course.

I’ll let you know if anything comes of it.

Udate:
Got this back:

Dear Tim Worstall,
Thank you for your email and for sharing your views regarding my message. I have received an overwhelming number of responses, and I am looking forward to responding to your comments and questions on my blog.
Regards,
George Soros

Pretty sure it’s a form letter. 5.45 am New York Time, no, I don’t think it’s been personally written.
