What We Can Learn From Chimpanzees (That Might Help us Become Better Men) You’re quite a bit smarter than any ape that’s ever lived – and more civilised. In other areas, however, humans’ closest living relative might just have the edge. Is it time to embrace your inner primate? - by Dan Williams 13 May 2021
Back in the Eighties, a 10-year-old named Cyril Grueter dragged his parents to a screening of
Gorillas in the Mist. Bold and haunting, it tells the true story of American primatologist Dian Fossey, who bonded with the mountain gorillas of central Africa.
“I was intrigued by the beauty of these creatures,” says Grueter, now in his 40s and a biological anthropologist at the University of Western Australia. “I read everything I could get a hold of about them, and I knew that studying these primates would become my career.”

Everything goes on June 21
@Michael Bentley: No no no! No face masks, no screens, no new normal . Everything goes on the 21st of June; for me at least. I m taking them on their original promise, no ifs, no buts. The economy will suffer

The economy will suffer because people don t want to go into shopping centres and wear a mask for hours.
