Dear Robin,
Robin:
A more important point, that only just occurred to me, is that we shouldn't really be looking for replication of *forms* because the replicators are the memes, that the forms carry in code.
Bill:
Ah, the polymorphous P-meme! <s>
If you mean "looking for" metaphorically, I am with you. But methodologically the only replication that we can verify are forms.
Best,
Bill
