Why do you need an infinite amount of monkeys? Just one monkey, one typewriter and infinite amount of time should be enough, that's whats bothering me. /confusedHookman said:Recently I was talking to a friend of mine and happened to get onto the subject of the 'infinite monkey' theory. The theory goes like this: If you had an infinite amount of mokneys and put them into a room with an infinite number of typewriters and gave them an infinite amount of time,they would eventually write everything in the universe that it is possible to write.
My friend could not get his head around this and spent the next 5 minutes repating the word "no" over and over again. His mind was officicialy blown! So I was wondering,I send out a message to Escapia,far and wide. What cant you get your head round?!
Eventually the monkey would die(unless it was an immortal monkey god!) and would have to be replaced,hence the need for an infinite number...I just looked back at this thread and I realised something. The Escapist just produced an Intelligent Flame War,I didnt think it was possible!Flushfacker said:Why do you need an infinite amount of monkeys?
