On: Tested in the field: Will monkeys type shakespeare?

[astine]

And perhaps the things to take away from this is that just because the probability of an event is zero, that doesn't mean the event can't happen.

Ah! That does seem to be the take-away here. In that case, however, how would you measure the probability of an impossible event?

I still maintain that an invinite number of dead monkeys would never type Shakespeare, no matter the resources alloted to them. :)
