We were discussing the needs of the handicapped yesterday and we were told a story involving a "service monkey" that was trained to hand the person at the gate the ticket out of the passengers pocket and then proceeded to buckle the passengers belt once they were on the plane.
I gotta get me one of them monkeys.
You may notice by my name that I happend to be an expert on this. Back in 1976 we tested a Monkey in a Lab, and trained him to hand out tickets and buckle seatbelt, unfortunately one of our technicians, Johnson, took away his banana during his break. He messed with the wrong monkey, and the Lab Monkey, soon to be dubbed a "service monkey" killed Johnson. We had to put him down, it was a sad day for all of us, and we haven't tried to train another one since.
