You enter a room that holds a monkey, a gorilla, and a chimpanzee. 
The chimpanzee has built an elaborate contraption out of tables,
chairs, and duct tape to reach a high hanging banana overhead.  The
gorilla is frantically doing sign language that can be colloquially
translated as "Get me out of this #!&$ing room!"  The monkey is seen
sitting quietly and still in front of an open textbook of quantum
physics...but to be honest, it really just looks like he's putting on
airs.

Based on your observations, determine which of the primates in the
room is the most intelligent.

Hi hailstorm:

Based on my observations, *I* am the most intelligent primate in the room. :-) 

I could easily build the chimp's elaborate contraption. 
I can communicate better than the gorilla. 
And I would definitely understand the monkey's quantum physics book. 

Search Strategy (on Google): 

primates

Of course, that's the correct answer! I just wish you had left it
unanswered for maybe an hour or so longer so that more people might
have looked at it, and we could see if I had tripped up any of my
other esteemed Researchers.  ;-)

Yes, I suppose that would have been more fun. :-) ;-) 

Thanks!

Maybe so, but I don't want to be the one to tell a talking gorilla
that he isn't the most intelligent primate in the room.
