So how many DOES it take to screw the top off of a monkey's sarcophagus?

Really? Humans kept pets? Who knew?
Quick. More grant money. Maybe they can figure out more earth-shattering discoveries.

You're an example of the same stupid wheel turning in the same stupid rut, over and over.

Come to think of it, maybe they did. Have you ever tried to do math with Roman numerals?
To: SunkenCiv
Sadly, Rome didn’t survive long enough for this to develop into the “Planet of the Apes” plot line.
