    Maybe a little bit more motivation will do it.

    Iā€™m impressed the little guys were able to hold the shift key and press another key to get the symbols yet alone pressing a key and then another that is on the other side of the keyboard. Check out the ferretā€™s work before commiting to another one though.

    It looks like some of the text messages Iā€™ve gotten. Somebody find a teenager to tell us what it says.

    Actually, the thought experiment requires an infinite amount of monkeys, and the point is that with an unlimited amount of time and inputs, everything that is possible will happen. Think: Borgesā€™ story ā€œThe Tower of Babel.ā€ (I have also written a variation of this idea, where English experts donā€™t know what to make of the fact that a million monkeys produce a work by Kafka rather than Shakespeare.)

    This is as far as you could possibly get in the real world in real space-time: ā€œTo be or not to be; that is the question. Whether ā€˜tis nobler in the mind to sufferā€¦ā€

    In other words, the whole monkeys-typing-Shakespeare hypothesis is absurd because it is impossible. It would never, ever happen. The universe hasnā€™t been around forever and it wonā€™t last forever either.

    Score one for special creation by an intelligent designer.
