Well you're not supposed to just have one. It's supposed to be a thousand monkies at a thousand typewriters.
Now do the Mythbusters thing and figure out how many monkies and typewriters it would take for them to write Hamlet in just under a year. Don't just solve the myth; put it to the test!

What if the monkeys evolve to higher intelligence as time passes by?
You maniacs!
