It's like a marble slab that needs a Michelangelo to turn it into an image. We've had one Michelangelo and a Rodin and only a few Greek sculptors in the past, what, three thousand years? Do we really think that a near infinite number of monkeys is now going to solve that problem, specially when the marble slab is undergoing its own metamorphosis underfoot? Good luck! Lucio.
