This is one of the cutest clips I have seen:

** Chimps born to appreciate music **
Infant chimpanzees innately prefer consonant over dissonant music, suggesting an appreciation of music is not a uniquely human trait.

Oh yeah! If that is true, how come all those kids that like speed-thrash-metal bands look like gorillas?

Yours truly,

Mr. Smarty Pants

P.S.

Gorillas with leather clothing with lots of metal studs.

Thanks for letting me know, Jeanette! I will be there with you in spirit! I wish you could sneak me with you in your suitcase. You have a good trip and don't forget to put a little sauce on my Haggis for me. Take care, Bill
