New Chorus through Soros ? (http://www.his.com/~wormsong/esw/esw7.html)
George Soros is the son of the Esperanto writer TivadarSoros.
Soros emigrated to England in 1947 and graduated from the London School of Economics in 1952.
Soros was a student of Karl Popper and says that his investment strategies are based on a Popperian skepticism about the reliability of any one human belief.
Soros was born in Hungary and lived there until 1946, when he escaped the Soviet occupation by participating in an Esperanto youth congress in the West.
Soros was fourteen when the Germans took military control over their ally Hungary in the last part of the war, and he avoided the fate of many Jews as the grandson of a Hungarian official overseeing the confiscation of Jewish properties, who was assisted by his son-in-law, TivadarSoros.
Soros has critics from all over the political spectrum: American conservatives dislike his contibutions for campaigns against Bush, and supporters of Israel dislike his rhetoric with inflammatory comparisons of Israeli government policy to Nazi Germany and Yasser Arafat.
