 hah!  the people in this newsgroup couldn't tell me if chimps were 
  smarter than dolphins or not, so how're they gonna differentiate 
  between humans?!  

  but serious, i saw on the scientific american program on pbs 
  this experiment:  a baby chimp(?) right after birth was separated 
  from a nervous mother and was placed with a foster mother with 
  a calm, nurturing personality.  after a while, the chimp visibly
  became more calm, more inquisitive, and had a more outward 
  personality.  part of the experiment was to stress the baby
  chimp to see if he reverts to his original personality--- he 
  did.  so, apparently, learnt behavior only carries you so far.  
   don't know if this has *anything* to do with your question, but
  this experiment struck me as interesting...
