Are your worm or woman? Molecular biologists have recently increased the percentage similarity between chimpanzee and human genes from 97% to 98.5%. New Scientist, 15 May 1999, p26

Editorial Comment:  What is the significance? Though 75% of human genes can be found in some worms, even the most hard nosed evolutionist would not consider worms were three-quarters human. Therefore having 98.5% human genes still makes a chimp a chump!
