    Hi Joe Dees -

    >Are those modes of transmission, or modes of perception?

    Touch and smell can be modes of transmission, certainly. If I touch your
    arm in sympathy, that is my meme of sympathy.

    If I let you smell your own sock, you might come to the behavior of doing
    laundry.
