An...err... interesting writing competition

I'm sure that many (if not all) of our readers will be submitting to this writing competition.

The prompt: "In keeping with Daniel Singer's thesis that the promise of socialism remains the last best hope for humanity and civilization,The Daniel Singer Foundation invites submissions for the 2004 prize, to be awarded for an original work of not more than 5,000 words exploring the fundamental question: What Is the Soul of Socialism?"

Enough said.
