Lines: 15 There's a classic sci-fi story, "Been a Long Long Time," by R. A. Lafferty, about an angel who is assigned (as a punishment, and to teach him patience) to supervise those monkeys.

It might have been _Fantastic._ "The monkeys will be immune to fatigue. I cannot say the same for you." -- Col. G. L.
