Jim, you should bring a comedy act to Vegas bud. Can you name the last three major buys of public companies that Buffett has made that do not pay a dividend? WHO bought div paying google and why?

We all know you want a dividend, and are immune to anything that doesn't reach that conclusion, including simple arithmetic. I'd have thought it was pretty obvious that most people would rather have $1.97 instead of $1.00, but clearly I'm wrong about that assumption and you'd rather have the $1.00, minus tax. And you want all of the rest of us to be in that poorer boat, too.

If you want a dividend, that's fair, your desires are your own. But you do have to recognize that you own probably the single stock in the world most famous for rationally not paying one. A humble suggestion would be to suggest you do get your dividend with dividend paying stocks. Of you want a cat, get a cat, don't complain that your dog doesn't meow.

Failing all the above, perhaps post about it less than once a month?

Jim
