from Banda attacking Marshall Patton from Bandera Texas and uh first I'd like to thank you very much for not only giving us a good investment vehicle but uh giving us a good education along the way and uh thanks a lot for the two volume set of the uh letters to stockholders over the years it's required reading around our place and uh if you can contain your hostility I'd like to thank Charlie Munger for the copy of his speech to the University of Southern California business school students back in 1994. it's also required reading and I wanted to ask you when are you going to write your book well I first of all I'd like to comment on Charlie's talk there I think I I think every investor in the world ought to read that talk before they invest I think that's uh That's a classic and we have copies available for we mail it out um a year or so ago to the shareholders at that time but anybody like a copy that talk of the by the supplier that that there doesn't seem to be any need for me to write a book everybody else is doing it we've got Jana Lowe here who just wrote the most uh recent one and uh you know at one time or another I've said everything I know and a good bit more uh so I I've never I've never felt compelled to do I really feel that the annual reports are sort of a book on the installment system plus I think very few people write two books and I I have this uh I have this kind of uh unwarranted optimism I guess that the best has always yet to come and there are a lot more interesting things are going to happen and I I would hate to uh preclude commenting on those so I think I think it's going to be a few years but I may I may get around to it at some point but I think maybe it'd be a bad sign if it happened because it might be that I really thought that what I was writing about was more important than what was going to happen next and Charlie are you going to write a book um your comment about why you are unable to write a book reminds me middle western fellow who left an unfinished manuscript and he apologized for not finishing his book which was entitled famous middle western sons of N/A and he said he was always meeting a new one and therefore I can never finish the book [Applause] as a courtesy Charlie and I are leaving each other out of the book that we write Charlie was uh Charlie grew up in Nebraska and he's authentic he has he has the credentials to brew it uh we worked in the same grocery store at different times many years ago
