    Keith,

    My disagreement with (much of) memetics is strongly reasoned. It derives from a worked out position which I have tried, given the limits of exchange on a site like this, to set out as clearly as I can. It takes two to have a dialogue, and sometimes positions are so far apart that this is not possible. But, by itself, this says nothing about the value of either position.
