it's his lifelong appetite for literary text. >> two more quick questions. >> okay. >> why was uc berkley chosen to receive the papers? >> why was it chosen? i didn't explain this well. i'm glad they asked that. mark twain wrote his will in such a way, and only one daughter as a desendent, could not even give the papers to anyone except through their own will. this was designed to protect them from men. it didn't work. her second husband ripped her off of about $5 million, by it kept the papers together. a guy would have have loved to sell them piece by piece, but couldn't. the legal situation wasn't right for that. when they were out here, i rushed over that. they go from payne to devoto to takes them to harvard, resigns 15 times, then timely does resign, then goes out, and there's a big tall courtly texasian who knew how to deal with clara. he was a genius at that. when he decides he wants to leave to go to berkeley. he asks to take the papers, and he -- she says sure. he said i think you should change your will so that instead of going to yale, which is where they were intended to go,
