For all you Monkeys out there

Selectric, use a slightly modified saying, you are beating a dead and non-existent horse. We have discussed the differences between non-random (ie selection) and random w.r.t. varying probability of mutations within a genome at specific sites and specific times.Personally I find the monkey statement to be a bit useless due to
1) the fact that monkeys really send very little of their time typing, and more pooping onthe keybaords, which shifts the results, and
2) the fact that randomness and probability as they are used generically are not really the same thing.------------------
