No, we will only be enacting a tragic farce.

Sure. Just by the chimp entering random letters on a keyboard, after some time it could be put together by someone as words of a tragic play (overlooking the typos). Or a mystery, or a fairy tale, or a number of different things. It's all in the interpretation. : )

Yes. It's a simple question of statistics.
