I couldn't take anyone seriously that argues for legal rights for apes... This guy is off his rocker...

You ALMOST had it there ... sadly, lamb chops are typically prepared bone-in, so you hit a minor technical glitch ... but, damn, you almost made a funny.

Right. Bone-in type.

That gives a new meaning to the term 'hand-job'. By the way, she's just part of the harem.

Havok: you might try David Brin's Uplift series, particularly STARTIDE RISING.

 i can see this straying very quickly but in this book he is pointing out how 'off their rockers' certain members of certain organisations have to be in this day and age...

edit:

this is probably what you are referring to-

The Great Ape Project (GAP), founded in 1993, is an international organization of primatologists, psychologists, ethicists, and other experts who advocate a United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Great Apes that would confer basic legal rights on non-human great apes: chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans. The rights suggested are the right to life, the protection of individual liberty, and the prohibition of torture. (See Declaration on Great Apes.)

that doesnt sound so unreasonable to me. this would help to ban things like vivisection for instance. its an extension of animal rights. we already extend these sorts of rights to whales which are another highly intelligent species...
