It's a very interesting theory. It really is quite relevant to many different things like Politics and religion. I don't know if it's true, but It's been around FOREVER it seems. I'm actually more interested in continuing the experiment than I am with presented data. Someone on your source article said something like, What happened when another set of monkeys have their own banana and ladder and aren't punished when climbing the ladder? Will the other 5 monkeys with the forbidden banana start to think maybe it's OK to get their own banana? What about a group of monkeys that see the other monkeys get sprayed but don't get sprayed themselves, Will they learn by witnessing the event or do they really have to experience it?
