<a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030509/ap_on_fe_st/britain_monkey_authors_3" target="_blank"> LONDON - Give an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of typewriters, the theory goes, and they will eventually produce the works of Shakespeare.
Give six monkeys one computer for a month, and they will make a mess. </a>

Still, they didn't use an infinite number of monkeys or give them infinite time.

"Another thing they were interested in was in defecating and urinating all over the keyboard," added Phillips, who runs the university's Institute of Digital Arts and Technologies.




I've gone through more keyboards that way!

Personal note: Never donate money to Plymouth University. They research nothing.

"They pressed a lot of S's," researcher Mike Phillips said Friday. "Obviously, English isn't their first language."

Well then that explains it. These were FOREIGN monkeys!

Coming soon, from the typing monkeys: <u>King Kong Lear</u>.

On a related note, Michael Jackson's monkey, Bubbles, was also given a typewriter, but only managed to produce the cryptic message helpmehelpmehelpmehelpme...
