    Show me where I said this. I certainly don't think I did.

    Dubious. Although not without possibility. But in this case, the
    mutation would be extreme, with perhaps no congruence
    whatsoever, kind of like rumors, like you saying that I said
    that behaviors have nothing to do with memetics.

    What I said was, (I'm working on thinking about memetics by
    deciding that) nothing but an artifact is a meme.

    And so far, it's working well, I think.
