            And therefore supplies its own mode of transmission and survival
    ...... dependent on the medium it is growing in!
            Angry, upset, sad, depressed, ect. medium will allow for the same
    type of meme. Happy, carefree, up medium will allow for a similar meme.

            True survivors will change with the medium even if it means changing
    polarity.
