Timed to the second, organized to the hilt, crisp as Herbert Allen’s French cuffs, Buffett’s schedule was laid out hour by hour, day by day. The notebook spelled out the conference speakers and topics—until now a closely guarded secret—and the luncheons and dinners that he would attend. Unlike the other guests, Buffett knew much of this in advance, but he still wanted to see what the notebook had to say.

不過更令他感興趣的是赫伯特給每位客人的私人留言條，以及關於這次精心組織的聚會的記事簿，上面説明了本年的太陽谷聚會為巴菲特都作了哪些準備。

時間精確的計劃，詳細周到的安排，如同赫伯特那一塵不染的`法式回褶袖口，巴菲特對每一天、每個小時的日程都作了安排。記事簿清楚地列出了與會發言者及演講主題---這些內容知道現在為止仍是嚴格保守的祕密---以及巴菲特將出席的午宴和晚宴。和其他客人不同的是，巴菲特對這些內容的大部分事先都有所知曉，不過他還是想看看記事薄是怎麼説的。
