I agree that the unequal chromosome numbers would not preclude a chimp-human hybrid. A primatologist (Chiarelli) collected monkey hybrids and there were a number with different chromosome numbers. I remember reading a book called THE MURDER OF THE MISSING LINK (fiction) years ago. The premise was as follows: that someone had crossed a chimp with a human, and to determine its "true" (legal) nature, he had killed it. Most of the book was concerned with the trial--was he guilty of murder? arnold
