    Wow. I thought that article was a joke, but I guess it wasn't. Just wow.

    Makes you think doesn’t it?
    I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

    I found it pretty funny.
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    Question Re: those crazy commies...

    It seems a wrong-minded idea to me. Apes are not better soldiers than humans, and stupider humans are not better soldiers than smarter ones. Perhaps they would be easier to coerce into base industrial servitude, but I don't know-- humans have always worked pretty well for that, with the proper degree of ruthlessness.

    Basically Stalin ordered a chief scientist Mr Ivanov to develop some super soldier, that was attempted in a breed between men and apes. He was sentenced 5 years of imprisonment because of his failure.
