Force fields, eh? Cool. Too bad we'll have to wait until the 24th century to get shields from the Shivans.
Monkeys... typewriters... hmm... I read an interesting article on that truism a few years ago in the Washington Post. Something about it being true, but with an asterisk. And that not only would they write Hamlet, but also every other Shakespearian work, and that letter you wrote to your girlfriend yesterday, and the Great American Novel that will not be published until 2047, and everything else that ever has been and ever will be written. Including the entire contents of the HLPBB.
