Slovenian President Janez Drnovšek.

Mr. Joel Schmidt of Brooklyn, New York, is currently on a mission: to correspond with each of the 200+ leaders of the world, compliment them on a job well done and request an autographed photo.

He still has a long way to go, but guess who was the fourteenth to reply? Hell, yeah! (Not exactly the leader of Slovenia — the president’s functions are largely ceremonial — but still.)

Mr. Schmidt also seemed to be confused by the word urad (it means "office") and the pronunciation of "Ljubljana." Then again, I’ve been here five years and still can’t say it right.

I wonder if he’ll get a reply from here
