TP:

Although LVLT is not one of the required-to-be-disclosed investments of Berkshire Hathaway (nor is it on the list of the specific BRK investments having a 12/31/98 market value of at least $750MM noted in BRK's Annual Report), LVLT's Chairman, Walter Scott, is a member of the Board of Directors of Berkshire Hathaway and is a long time Warren Buffett friend and associate.

There has for many, many years been a close connection between many senior people of BRK and PKS, both of which are headquartered in Omaha and are very active elements in the Omaha community.

I do not know whether WB or his family have any personal investment in Level 3, but such would not be surprising.
