"Dr Sambrook quoted an earlier researcher's verdict: `Were a four-year-old
child to use language in the way a chimpanzee uses it, we would consider
that child disturbed.'"

Nice antropocentric interpretation but the reality is clear, we are quite close to our next of kins after all.
Some might have a hard time admitting that.
