Subject: Re: Dear Mr Buffett, and your letter next week.
The simple reason that the originators of individual trades are not disclosed is the same reason the length of Mr Buffett's lunch is not disclosed: we have no inherent right to that information, and it could conceivably be to the detriment of the firm somehow if publicised.

This is absolutely ludicrous. Buffett's lunch is none of my business. Todd or Ted screwing up is absolutely my business. Please. If say Todd Combs (more likely than Ted Weschler) makes dumb decisions, I as a shareholder have a right to demand that Berkshire at least keep a tighter leash on him. Whether they do or not will decide my allocation to Berkshire and indirectly my retirement. This is not a game.
