		<description><![CDATA[Randomness by itself creates a whole lot of noise, but you will find the occasional &quot;To be or not to be&quot; embedded within. Now, if you had a mechanism like natural selection to foster the parts that kinda sorta make sense, and a mechanism that allowed those parts to evolve more complex forms, you probably could generate a whole lot of signal. I&#039;m just saying you&#039;d have more chance of getting this from synthocritters than you would from monkeys at typewriters, or from X-ray sources in the Crab Nebula.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An infinite number of monkeys typing on an infinite number of typewriters for an infinite amount of time would produce an infinite amount of nonsense. It would never produce the works of William Shakespeare. There is no way that a random process could, for example, produce the sequence &quot; the &quot; as many times as English language code needs it replicated or produce the start codes (capital letters) or stop codes (periods) in the necessary places to convey the proper meaning.

Likewise, random changes to information produces more and more garbled information or irrelevant information. It will never produce new, improved, or more information.

Basically, these processes will produce &quot;noise&quot; not &quot;signal&quot; and will erode any &quot;signal&quot; that&#039;s there. SETI relies upon detecting &quot;signal&quot; through the ambient &quot;noise&quot; of outer space, knowing that only an intelligence can produce &quot;signal.&quot;]]></description>
