I think what I meant was:
"But the results of a new study call that figure into question, with a finding that there are actually large chunks of the human and chimp genomes that are vastly different.
Researchers at a company called Perlegen Sciences in Mountain View, California, used a powerful biological computer chip that can scan the entire genetic makeup of an organism, that is, its whole genome. The results, published in Monday's issue of Genome Research, show that chimps and humans are much more different than scientists previously thought. "
This means that 99% figure you cite is incorrect.
There are considerable genetic differences between primates and humans according to this study.
I said there is a 99+% identity in the coding regions between chimps and humans and 98% identity overall. Yes there are some areas where the differences are greater, especially in non-coding regions.
Don't go to a Creationist website to get your information, go read the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science article for yourself. Can't find the reference right now, but I'll be glad to look if you promise to actually read it. If you're not going to make the effort, then neither will I.
