Werner Herzog's Fitzcarraldo There is an old adage your mother may once have taught you about the neighborhood weirdo - commonly referred to in English Literature as the "village idiot" - which goes something like this: "poor people are crazy, rich people are eccentric."

And Brazilian Madness......
written by ch.c., September 08, 2007
...to produce over 500 millions tons of sugarcane in 2007....but harvesting such quantity in its vast majority like you did 200 years ago...with your african slaves .....manually !

Funny that Australia or America are harvesting 100 % of their sugarcane....MECHANICALLY....FOR THE LAST SEVERAL DECADES !

Did Brazil just started to realize only a few years ago that mechanical harvesters....have been in existence for already quite a long time elsewhere ?

Brazil is a real backward country where madness is a way of life !
