I was stunned when I found out not that long ago that he was even still alive. 80 is damned old for a chimp, even a captive one living in relative luxury.Comment

80 is old enough to make it highly unlikely that the just deceased chimp is actually the former sidekick of Weismuller. RIP anyway, John Doe.Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.
