The best memos, in your opinion?

I've been reading some of the memos out there and I found some of those immensely interesting. Some of those:

- DLJ ('Too Busy') memo

- Bear Sterns memo (MBA hires and PSD - Poor, Smart and Deep Desire to be Rich)

- Memos from the Chairman, Alan Greenberg (Book)

- Oaktree's H. Marks memos (all available on their website)

- Martin Lipton's memos (Wachtell Lipton Archive) 

- Buffet letters to shareholders

What are some of the best memos which you've read? Would you recommend others than those listed?
