Do you still like CSG below $40? It seems to be priced similar to KO based on their forward PE but KO delivers a higher dividend.

Buffet's largest holding is still KO.
Berkshire Hathaway holdings:

Notice Buffet added BAC to his holdings as a 'New" addition.

I do recall the discussion about Bill Miller and found it quite interesting. I guess I error on holding some positions too long and do agree with you that three years should be plenty of time for both the company and/or industry to turn around.

Interesting note on Graham's general holding period for cigar butt positions. Do you know if he found it profitable to ever establish new full positions from his cigar butts? I find that I continue to have pretty good knowledge about these companies and their operations. I tend to sell them too early in their recovery. HAL is one that comes to mind.

I am currently reviewing my portfolio for tax loss selling candidates as I like to complete these transactions during Sept. & Oct. which is early. I like to load up on new positions (or additions) when everybody else is tax loss selling in December.
