I just realized something...not that I used it anyway, but the "return to news item" link is gone from these things after you post...hmmm...maybe we should hire some typewriting monkeys to put it back... ;)

i think it would be more wise to invest in some chimpanzees, they're more psuedorandom than the monkeys, but they type faster and live longer, and would be more cost efficent ;)

What type of chimpanzees? I hear the ones from Africa can get a little unruly, but that they're great typers. On the other hand, there are the ones from the Amazon Rainforest in South America...those chimps, I hear, tend to be a little bit more obedient, but they are a little bit too structured and tend to type in patterns...Or were you thinking zoo chimps? Or circus chimps maybe? Let me know....

definitly not domesticated chimps...
i'd say go with the african, i hear they are also cheaper *checks e-bay*

LOL, click web link
i think that $27,000 for the old ones is a reasonable price, dont you?

click on this link also...

I expect they eat a whole lot more, too. And eventualy they grow to be realy big, and bat airplanes out of the sky from the top of the empire state building. Or was that a gorilla? Or rubber?

Just write an random ASCII generator program-it doesn't need to be fed. :-)

yeah, but its soooo much cooler to open a door to a room full of typewriting chimpazees

like in Wayne's World, when he opens the door with all of the secret agents training and fighting...that is such a great movie...*goes to watch Wayne's World for a 15th time*

You're only at 15? I'm on my 31415th time ;)

Gorillas can speak sign language, if they can do that they'd probably be the best candidate for typing.

Test post here.

Yeah, it seems to work now. Let's hope that carries on in the next survey...

*confused*

Whaa?

That sparks the idea for my next survey!! :-)

This could be interesting :)

I would like to request that that post be deleted, because it is WAY off topic. Shame on you Magnus ;)

Ooh! you DID fix it! cool...not that I'll ever use it anyway... ;)

*confused even more*

Ooooh wait! I see something that's different! Wonder if that's it. Eh, maybe not.

When you post there's a "return to article" link now...that wasn't there before...see a thread or two above this one when I reported it...

Oh yeah, I did notice that, but I was referring to the little orange ID link next to the username of the person you're replying to. I remember that it wasn't there before (though I may have just not noticed it).
