“The fact that chimpanzee genomes are about 10% larger than that of humans, a detail few people are aware of...”

I’ve seen chimps at the zoo, and I’m sure mine are larger.

Uh I don't know what how large a chimp's genome is has to do with anything.

I can only assume that the author of the article assumes that people assume that larger genome = smarter animal. Which nobody does.

I mean, old computers used to be really big-- does that mean they're faster than a new laptop? No.

Tell you what, the smallest chimp on the block has testes far larger than the largest pair on any human.

Something is behind that Fur Shur.
