It was all just wishful thinking on the experimenters part. The experimenter would see a string of not meaningful signs and ignore them until something meaningful came along. Not so impressive. Like, they put a bunch of monkeys in a room with a bunch of typewriters and found that the monkeys crapped on the typewriters. A little short of Shakespeare.   └  Rate this comment:  Thumb up 1 Thumb down 1
