Monkey Business


Having taught college kids for seven years, I don't find the results of this study the least bit surprising. I know some chimps and apes have learned vocabularies of several hundred words. That's in excess of the vocabularies of many Towson University freshmen.

    chalupa knows at LEAST 100 words and HER brain is the size of a walnut!

    sounds like those chimps have been playing "Brain Age"

    (They would be hard pressed to NOT do better than US!)
