    More proof that 90% of DP visitors can't read English or don't understand what they read.

    Just for fun, I looked up a recent SEC filing...

    http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1288776/000119312511103802/ddef14a.htm


    Looks like:

    - Brin and Page hold master's degrees from Stanford, not PhDs as I think was posted previously, and
    - Page has 115k shares of class A stock, plus 27 million in class B stock (39% of class B shares). Brin has another 27 million shares of class B. Between Page, Brin, and Schmidt, they hold 91.9% of class B shares. Not sure what all the differences are between class A and class B, but it does look like class B shares give you 10 votes/share vs. 1 vote/share with class A.

    Larry Page is co-owner and CEO
    Sergey Brin is also co-owner
    And there is Eric Schmidt which is executive chairman

    It was formed by a few individuals you can Google their names, but they have share holders like any major company, so its not just owned by them

    When you don't know what you're talking about, quit guessing.
