I think the proper conclusion here is that the attention span of Harvard graduate students decreased linearly over the course of the ten year experiment.

Or maybe the maze floors just got slipperier after ten years of rats running over them!

You don’t get it do you. Once a monkey on one side of the world learns that he can use a branch as a tool to collect ants by sticking it into a tree opening, some other monkeys thousands of miles away suddenly learn to do the same thing.

I guess…DNA has its own email system? Right. And monkeys can read.
