...consistent findings by a wide variety of researchers support specific behavioral theories. To cover his bets Emmerich says that zoologists should not try to explain human behavior. He mentions the surprising genetic similarity between man and other relatives but it does not occur to him that we probably share some basic behavioral genes as well as some basic anatomical genes. He claims DeVore made "unverifiable conjectures" and says "human evidence for his theories is simply nonexistent."

...last quarter of 1977, Chrysler suffered an operating loss of $49.7 million, compared with an operating profit of $119.2 million in the 1976 period. This year's first quarter probably wound up in the red too because the company's share of the total U.S. market has slipped (to 11.3% in March) and foreign operations are producing mounting losses.

Other Kennecott stockholders might find Berner's plans attractive. Kennecott management is sure to find them a tempting target for that...

The weirdos he kept turning up in his cases sensed that the American dream had newly relocated there, and everyone was feverishly intent on grabbing his share-getting in on the ground floor, as it were. Good, gray London hasn't been like that since Will Shakespeare's day-or anyway, Charles Dickens'-and the correlation between landscape and Chandler's characters simply does not exist...
