    Keith, thanks for link to Hud Nordin's "scientology-ku." It seems to me that a memetic approach could discuss the evolution of haiku in English in a non-polemical, non-sectarian way. For instance, the 'ku that Nordin writes are arguably a separate species from those found in the major haiku journals and books. The Haiku Society of America's site is representative <http://www.hsa-haiku.org/>
