I only had two minutes in an office before I was called. So I never got to read but the opening of the article. It seems that we share 99.15 of the same DNA as Monkies. Could Darwin have been right?

All the genetic evidence points that way,I think God created Man,and saw that was a mistake,so God created Women,and saw that was a mistake,so God created Monkeys,and has been happy eversense. /ccboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

That is correct. We even have a significant percentage,(I forget how much exactly) that we share with reptiles and even dinosaurs.
