Wow, I've been following this story for years, and I honestly never thought I'd see this day. I was pleased when the NIH dramatically reduced the number of chimps a few years ago, but to retire ALL of them? Fantastic news! link
I hope they enjoy their retirements. And thank you, Dr. Francis Collins. |

"It's"?!?! Stupid autocorrect! I'll ask Bill to fix it. |

Auto correct is as ignorant of proper apostrophe use as …. as the average TMP savant. |

Its true. Wait, what? D'oh!
I've found that my autocorrect always changes "its" to "it's," and, bafflingly, always changes "well" to "we'll." That one makes no sense whatsoever. |
