Re: [OT] Monkey & Type-writers

[steve.cooper@xxxxxxx]

I saw this story earlier in the week and couldn't believe they got money
for this type of research.  What exactly were they trying to prove, the
statement they are testing is about an infinite number of monkeys.  It's
purpose is to demonstrate the nature of infinite you can't test it.

I think I shall apply for a =A310K resource grant to prove that every whole
number has a successor.  I shall start by writing a small program that adds
one on each iteration and let it run until I die or until it crashes
because it found a number that can't have 1 added to it.

World gone mad!!!
