Borges' Footnote

In my Selected Non-Fictions (Penguin, Edited by Eliot Weinberger) it appears on p. 215 (in "The Total Library") and is the second of only two footnotes for the very short text. I also reread Total's fiction counterpart, "The Library of Babel," and, alas, the busy primate is missing (but I'll perhaps check again -- he may be in the john of one of the unspotlighted hexagons).

"Strictly speaking, one immortal monkey would be sufficient."
