Either people (and birds and whales and monkeys and maybe coconuts) have
_always_ been doing that, or some have recently invented the bureaucracy
required to call this something else. I tend to think it's all
bureaucracy when someone says they are 'building memes'.
And, yes, I tend to think of bureaucracy as superfluous self-escapade at
all times.
