Can't Trust Those Monkeys!

This cracked me up today. I happened to be directed to the Wikipedia page for the Infinite Monkey Theorem (the notion that monkeys typing randomly on a keyboard would eventually tap out the great works of literature) and the following sentence made the trip there more than worth the cost of a click:

"In 2003, a humorous experiment was performed with six Celebes Crested Macaques, but their literary contribution was five pages consisting largely of the letter S."

So much for my plan to hire monkeys to help with the sequel to my Agile book...
