No reason to think that with a bit of encouragement high school kids can't
do original research. Witness the Westinghouse/Intel Science competition in
the USA. Good luck and much success in your investigation, Barak. Please
keep us informed.

between memetics and human ingenuity i.e. how can human ingenuity exist
within the realm of memetics. I would appreciate it if you could help me
find some information (articles, web-sites, books etc.) about this topic.
That's too narrow! I doubt there are any websites, books or articles
that deal specifically with ingenuity and memetics. I'd have thought
that, for a high school project, an overview of the whole field would
be much more appropriate.
