    Very interesting....

    I would only but this but-

    >Also, the "complete thought" MUST be a WRITTEN one

    - that I think there is something very right about the above statement,
    in that culture (vs society- after all, ants have a 'society') should be
    artefactual- but, I would contend that art (images, dances, rituals,
    etc.) are just as valid as writing to be cultural artefacts, and thus
    contain 'memes' under your refining definition.

    Yes, no?
