I don't understand this comment Joe. I could give a shit if you
want to put references to pieces that link to discussions about memetics in
your posts, regardless of their content. My comment was directed at posts
that consist of nothing more than references relating to your political
comments, which I felt might be better utilised by those want to read
articles from the Daily Telegraph and the like, as a weblog where the
totality of the arguments are apparent. Given the abundance of posts
lately, particularly from yourself, I thought it might allow those of with,
y'know jobs and lives, to still participate in the list now and again on
things of direct relevance to memetics without having to wade through the
war talk.
