Planet of the Apes Theoretical Question

The point is that a gorilla wouldn't get to that point, since they're foragers. Also, they do communicate with each other, which is the key thing needed for organization, only gorillas organize for protection and social reasons, not hunting.

Physically, gorillas and chimps are fairly comparable in physical prowess, and the level of difference in the chances one human would have against either of them is purely academic.

and they might even spell it better than some humans!

Yeah, my stupid opposable thumbs and a too small blackberry will be my own personal downfall.

SF, I see your point, and concede. Talking gorillas would likely not be aggressive, unless they felt threatened.

Actually, DC's Gorilla City is a lot like what a high tech gorilla society would likely be like. Peaceful and advanced technologically by mistake. Ironically, Grodd displays very human-like tendencies.
