What do you think John: when monkey looks at the mirror, does he know
what he is looking at?

Depends on the species. Some do, most don't. Read the literature yourself, there's lots been done in recent years on the psychology of monkeys and apes. (John Hawk's weblog might be a good place to start, if you can't afford a book.)

Maybe you might have done a bit more research and corrections before I
started to "comb" your garbled thoughts.

I did no research. I didn't need too. I told you the plain ungarbled facts. They're all well-known, and there was nothing I said that required any corrections at all.
