LOL!
google is interested, along with george soros, archer daniels midland et al, in brazilian ethanol:
“A clutch of potential investors have descended here, including commodities giants, hedge-funds and energy companies. Even the founders of Google Inc. came to have a look. But the global millions are colliding with an earthy reality: families like Mr. Junqueira Franco’s that have controlled Brazil’s sugar-cane wealth for decades, even centuries. Many don’t want to sell; others are asking sky-high prices for operations riddled with problems.”
