    Greetings,

    May I invite you to participate in a new mailing list "Meme Exchange",
    a channel for the exchange of memes.

    There is a theory that your consciousness arises from an ecology of
    competing memes.

    In ecology a measure of the health of an ecosystem is the species
    diversity. The number of species that that ecosystem sustains.

    Improve your ecosystem health by increasing the species diversity of
    your mental ecosystem.

    The meme exchange is for the transmission of memes.

    Something like a kiddies playschool. The primary purpose of a kiddies
    playschool is the exchange of 'flu virii and diarrhoeal
    bacteria. (Don't you believe me? Just count how many bugs rug rats
    bring home from playschool in a year and then lets talk again.)

    Your post should be a brief (approximately 15 lines) transmission of
    any meme that has grabbed your mind and now wishes to reproduce
    itself.

    To subscribe send an e-mail to meme-exchange-subscribe@egroups.com

    The messages of the group and other group information is found at
