Who the hell is Ben Horowitz and why would I pay money to contact him?

Surprised to see this q on HN of all places. He's a co-founder of arguably the most powerful VC in Silicon Valley.

Okay, noted. I don't think much of VC's in general. Ours were a decidedly mixed bag that brought little to the table, in retrospect.

What value does expressing your surprise add, here?

Not much, but the original question was a little severe in its tone as well. Let's all be happy folks! :)
