I too was interested to read about the problems at BHE. I had been expecting BHE to be an engine of significant earnings at BRK for many years to come, along with railroads and insurance. Good to see the insurance profits come back, and it sounds like the outlook is OK for the railroads. I hope the comments about BHE and its possible reluctance to invest more (or go out of business?) are for public consumption as some here have suggested.

Every year it seems some part of BRK lags and another part does well, but this is supposed to be Greg Abel's particular area of expertise, isn't it? I will very much want to hear what he says about this at the annual meeting.

Does anybody know anything about Scott Thon, current CEO of BHE?
