    <intentionalities are necessarily involved in memetics>

    Correct me if I am wrong (I dont't quite follow the discussion though) but doesn't
    mean (there we are!!) intentionallity also on purpose/wilful/premeditated!?
    Has anyone thought about those implications?
    I mean (here we are again) must we (not) count in a forsight ,or better some
    idea about a future process_a process wherein intentionalities (call them memes
    for my sake) give something,which has none,meaning!?
    Or is this to be discussed elsewhere!?

    And please,gentlemen,stop nagging at eachother! This is a discussion-list,project
    your ideological hates on something outside this list...we have work to do if we
    ever will find the foundations of memetics.
    Thank you all!!

    Regards,

    Kenneth
