Why does no one ever listen to me?!! I have posted a dozen times about how the 100th monkey is all a hoax. It NEVER HAPPENED. of at least what you think happened did not. What they failed to tell you when they recount the story, is that one monkey was known to swim between the colonies. And he shared his food washing skills with them. There was NO mental link at all. Why people keep spouting this silly fable is beyond me.
