The Bonobos
THe highlight of my visit came during a visit to a
special bonobo preserve about an hour outside of
Kinshasa. The bonobos are an increasingly rare
group of primates that hold the special privilege of
being the closest genetic match to us humans.
Thankfully thereare preserves like this one to help give
these guys a chance to survive the human onslaught on
their environment.

""Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and
so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our
people, and neither do we."
"I want to thank the astronauts who are with us,
the courageous spacial entrepreneurs who set such a wonderful example for the
young of our country."
"Had we to do it over again, we would look at the
consequences of catastrophic success, being so successful so fast that an enemy
that should have surrendered or been done in escaped and lived to fight another
day."
