Ran across this article on the Drudge Report earlier today. Looks like a good pulp scenario is born. Now I have a reason to get those Eureka Boiler Suit Apes.

Gives new meaning to the concept of the "New Socialist Man."

Totally sick but not a surprising development for a philosophy that denies the reality of the spiritual.

You should have stayed in the seminary Mr. Dzhugashvili!

This paragraph made my eyebrows jump:

>Mr Ivanov's ideas were music to the ears of Soviet planners and in 1926 he was dispatched to West Africa with $200,000 to conduct his first experiment in impregnating chimpanzees. <

I think if I were the writer I would have worded that differently.

Wait a minute…he was paid to experiement with chimpanzee procreation. Wouldn't that make him a "chimp pimp"? :)

And I thought just the TOPIC, alone was 'disturbing' enough as a concept….this definately gets a '9' on my 1-10 scale 'Wierd-o-meter'…

I think I'll stick with 'bugs'…much simpler. You see them…you kill them. All muss…no fuss!

I can just imagine the PETA supporters wanting this banned on the grounds that it degrades apes with filthy human DNA!

Hmmm…maybe I could just kitbash some Uruk-Hai for the Eastern Front?

I always thought that the Sliders' Kromaggs looked like Russian-ape hybrids:
