Timm,
I'm glad you liked the article.
Yes, unfortunately, many critters share similar diseases with humans.
That's why we test on them.
Did you see the story about neanderthals and their common dna to ours?
I'll do a search and post a link. I read a lot today as it's been crazy raining and very windy here. Cabin fever in November! Can't wait to see what I'll be like come April.
