So, the thinking allowing for Google's April Fool humor might not at all be along the lines of the thinking Larry and Sergei used to create great wealth, but in spite of it...

However, all this temptative analysis is beside the point...

All I meant to convey is that, nevertheless and in spite of all their riches, IMHO that sort of April Fool thing is something that only someone a bit too young and a bit too immature for their corporate chairs would do... Just my opinion, of course...
