"You really ought to read carefully. The point is, behavior is not the relevant similarity: even clocks exhibit "behavior". The relevant similarity, revealed through behavior, is personality."

You perhaps ought to write more carefully. You just said the above. Previously you said the below. In between, I made an accurate and pertinent response pointing out that behaviour was common to all animals. Your explicit "not behaviour" earlier was revealing--at least to me. People always put words down for a reason...RIGHT?

"there is a class of borderline animals that seem to exhibit personality (not behavior)",

well, perhaps I was mistaken

True--indeed you were--on most counts.
