I agree .... but if we can not all agree on whether or not a meme
has been identified or described ... how do we go about establishing a
standard for the measurement and replication of that meme? When the
thermometer was being worked out ... NO ONE refuted the idea, effects, or
theory of temperature ... where is the undisputed corner stone of memetics?
