Re: If we came from monkeys, why don't we have tails?
No.
Psalms 12:6-7
6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
1. Sure, I could begin such an experiment, but I don't think that neither me or you will be alive after 100 years to see the results of it, so what's the point? 
2. The Bible was written by eyewitnesses, therefore your whole point is invalid.
Wut? 
Have you ever heard of the natural processes of degradation of organic matter? If I may recommend to you an experiment that will take a few months rather than 100 years, get yourself a dead squirrel and just leave it on your porch, and see what happens. You might want to put it in a cage, so the predators won't eat it. Depending on your location, it might be cold right now, so either wait until spring or take the dead squirrel to your kitchen and leave it on the table.
If you don't like the smell, then dig a hole in the ground and bury the squirrel there, and then dig it out after a few months.
Depending on the dryness/temperature of your climate, as well the composition of the soil (if you take the second option), you will end up with a skeleton with some yucky (or dried out) organic remains attached to it. Most of the squirrel, though, will be dirt by then.
Happy hunting!

i want you to do an experiment for me get around say Eight hundred people one tell them an intricate and complex story then over the course of a hundred years get them to tell it to the next person.

also you say that we would turn to dirt after we die... using that logic anything in your body that's not alive or that become not a part anymore would do too so answer me this does your hair turn into dirt when you cut it, do you use your nail clippings to pot saplings.
