I agree with you if birds do not learn by imitation. If it were humans,
though, C would be a meme, right?

Dear Richard,

<<
Said another way, direct imitation is only one small method of meme
transmission.

Hear, hear!

(However, I don't think that what Raymond is talking about amounts to
transmitting meme C. Memes A and B are transmitted, and C is their effect.)

Best,

Bill
