And torq - you surely understand that Mr. Buffett's company is the most highly leveraged outfit in this universe. That $37 billion he has to spend is premium money from insurance. To buy pipelines, etc. he has to SELL bonds. He doesn't keep the cash in a vault like Scrooge McDuck.

He calls himself the 'Fort Knox of Capital', bragging about his liquidity, then has to sell something to get the cash. By your logic, it wouldn't make sense. But it does.

Cheers
