Well, now, does this surprise you, especially in a world where they've
finally proven that even an infinite number of monkeys won't give us Lear?

Best,
Cecilia.

But then, this reminds me of something else ... let me dig it up.

Ah, here:

An Infinite Number of Monkeys

After all the Shakespeare, the book
of poems they type is the saddest
in history.

But before they can finish it,
they have to wait for that Someone
who is always

looking to look away. Only then
can they strike the million
keys that spell

humiliation and grief, which are
the great subjects of Monkey
Literature

and not, as some people still
believe, the banana
and the tire.
