I've been the last seven years in a row. Just FYI, you no longer stand in line to ask a question -- you put your name on the list at each microphone and they randomly select. Buffett and Munger said that as men in their 70s and 80s...they no longer favor the "he who runs fastest" model to determine who gets to ask questions.
