Memory is great, but it is reasoning that sets us apart from the beasts. Sure brain size must be of some importance, but the link to intelligence is not a straightforward progression. As to Neanderthals being absorbed into our genome - well yes, it's a logical possibility, but saying it did happen is pure supposition on their part. 1% t 3% is hardly statistically significant, especially on a sample of exactly 8 people, two of whom didnt register anything.

When it comes to DNA any difference whatsoever is IMPORTANT and SIGNIFCANT.

Otherwise you might really be mistaken for a chimpanzee or gorilla.
