Uhhhh, I don't think the gorilla has anything to do with this situation.

It would be like me saying to one of the lab girls,

"Oh look, Koko just signed that you need to run out to get me some meat lovers pizza (thin crust), pick up a case of Yuengling on the way home, and then dress up in a skimpy french maid outfit to dust the furniture as I watch the game this afternoon. Isn't she just precious, Koko is also apparently signing that you are a sex kitten and need to be spanked because you've been ever so naughty."
This is all about a pervy lesbo scientist trying to get her jollies by blaming it all on a monkey.

it was the caretaker who is causing the problem.

That's pretty much what I was saying, in a late-night, long winded, kinda way. It just pissed me off that they were going after the "lead researcher, Dr. Francine "Penny" Patterson.

Like I said, from what I've read, and seen on documentaries, she was one of the first to make an interspecies communications break-through.

Despite what I grew up with, Lassie didn't understand, neither did Flipper, and Dr. Doolittle couldn't really talk to animals.

I believe Koko does communicate with another species. To me, that's just cool.
