Monkeys Get 16 Characters of Shakespeare

Not those kinds of characters ... The Monkey Shakespeare Simulator has just posted a new record on the road to recreating the works of Shakespeare through random keystrokes:

16 letters from “King Richard II” after 24,115 billion billion monkey-years on 11 May 2004. “KING RICHARD. OlazZtssi0cwX?QDjqkP9r]xfaBmlVU]e...”

matched

“KING RICHARD. Old John of Gaunt, time-honoured Lancaster, Hast thou, according to thy oath and band, Brought hither Henry Hereford, thy bold son, Here to make good the boist’rous late appeal”

Pretty soon we’ll have a whole block of dialogue.

During November it's all about me writing a novel. Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
