The obituary unaccountably failed to mention that Washoe is also known for biting off the finger of the neurosurgeon Karl Pribram, one of the authors (with George Miller and Eugene Galanter) of "Plans and the Structure of Behavior", on most undergraduate psychology course reading lists in my day. Some critics can be really vicious when they don't like a book. Stephen ----------------------------------------------------------------- Stephen L.
