Evopeach, I see you forgot, once again, to back up your claim of 2%. Please get around to that promptly. I'd hate for people to think that you have no credibility or honesty simply because you make up stats and then can't back them up.

Um, Hyperion used your suggestion of looking in a textbook. You can't complain when someone takes you at your word and then shows you to be wrong.

Incorrect. Animals are also capable of this. Apes hold wakes for dead members of their families. Monkeys conform to group dynamics. Other animals show emotions. If you are going to make this statement, you will have to back it up, because most people can look at their dog and see consciousness. Of course, you won't back it up because you have yet to back anything up.
