	Do you want the truth?  No, I do not consider chimpanzees primitive
enough to enslave.  But I believe that for purposes of research that the needs
of humanity take primacy over the dubious rights of the chimpanzees.  I 
simply cannot rationalize the halting of medical science so that chimpanzees,
or any other creature, will no longer have to die for research.

	I believe that followups should be directed to alt.flame.
