Ruby gem Error "Google is not a module/class"

When I first require 'roo' and then require 'google-search' I get an error 

TypeError: Google is not a module

Again, I first require 'google-search' and then require 'roo' I get this error

TypeError: Google is not a class

See below for what actually happened on irb

The fix for this would be to have Roo namespace. I have modified the roo gem github. You can download roo-1.4.0.gem from github repository and install this version of roo
