Hypercephalic apes, Peter? Apes penetrating the periodic table and painting the Te Avae No Maria? I don't think so.This gives a whole new meaning to rectitude!! LOL!! But I only meant that what Homo sap does seems to define what's available for other species to do in a lot of areas, the encroachment mostly increasing by the decade. I concur that as a species we certainly seem to be peeeing in our own nest; but I certainly don't think of _you_ as a member of a hypercephalic apes species. Well, maybe what it is is the taxonomy is flawed -- I suspect there may be two or three distinct species running bodies that just look like each other. Viz, Homo Sap, Homo media-sap, and Femina sapienta.
On the other hand, maybe hypercephalic apes think such things about themselves also. How are you at sign language?
