    Well said Wade,
    that is the issue with verbal representations that we cannot escape their
    memory though we may desire to negate their very existence. how does one say
    " I would never use eIe" whilst refraining from using eIe. (and remaining
    simple)

    Why Wade? why would you never use eIe. pls explain
    is it inneficient? is it wrong? is it of a creed you do not accept? does the
    sound of it makes one cringe? as I work with diverse language constructs, I
    would be happy to understand your prompt rejection in a deeper manner. we,
    in the media business have a tendency to use memetic constructs in an
    intuitive manner, words for us are playful operations meant to convey
    certain facilitation of communication, but eIe understand not all see it
    that way.
    As I understand memetics to be a realm of the human mind, it cannot be that
    a rejection (or acceptance) of a certain representation of meaning carries
    no implications whatsoever.

    best,
