I know I'm being pedantic, but...

I heard TV newscasters say this on TV the other night, and again read it online in the New York Times. "Warren Buffett is buying the Burlington Northern."

No, he isn't. That is, unless he invented a time machine, went back to the mid '90s, and bought it before it could merge with the Santa Fe, in which case I would think the development of time travel would be the main focus of the story. Berkshire Hathaway is buying the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation. At least get the railroad's name right.
