So can they also learn spoken words? Can can this be used to teach them to write - like Chimps with signing? Ie this Baboon was taught that kite is a word. If he then learns to assiate the world apple with a real apple, can he learn to write I want apple? Certainly parrots have been shown to be able to understand spoken words and even speak to some degree.

I know of one baboon that also learned to cut and paste no end of pay equity diatribes and race focused immigration moanfeats.

Sure. And here we see a couple more engaging in shit flinging. A reflexive behavior not mediated by the neocortex.

Not only was a nerve struck, but it's being twanged.

That would depend upon your relative tangential position in the underverse.

I don't see any big deal, andy. Do you? This forum is proof that lower primates than baboons, chattering monkeys, can recognise and even use a few words.

Not well, and rationally and not productively. Often not coherent. But use them they do.

You should correct all your errors in that post.
I've put one of those in bold.

I'm sure a baboon could have done better.

With every post you manage to mash out on your keyboard, in between scratching your ass, being transfixed by the light reflection on your wall, or picking your nose, you demonstrate that you, the dullest of the dull posters here, can string along a series of words, ill used and ill thought out to be sure, into a somewhat coherent if not laughable sentence for the better amusement of us all.

Anyway, since the second of the forum shit slinging primates have shown up: Andy, meet Eureka.

Now where's Curtman?
