I'm glad to see all that free Château Lafite isn't going to Financial Times columnist Gideon Rachman's head:

Another problem for me at Davos is that, whilst I keep bumping into famous people, I can never think of anything to say to them. This morning the first person I saw as I left my hotel was George Soros. I fell into step with him, and after a long pause said something like: "It's looking quite bad on the markets, isn't it." He agreed. Definitely a bit dodgy. I've heard it from Soros himself.
