Oh, this can't be true...

But even if it is not, it's funny.

A monkey has learned to control a remote arm to fling its own poo at researchers. From the article: "Researchers at Duke University have taught a lab monkey to control the movement of a robotic arm, using only signals from its brain. The monkey's immediate utilization of this new skill was to shower a group of neurobiologists with feces, according to the report by lead researcher Miguel Nicolelis."

Oh please, oh please, oh please be true!
