I may be somewhat responsible for this, although I said 'Advertising is
the memetic technology of commerce' and was not refuted. No inference of
origin though. (It is a nice catchphrase and I may have encountered it
anywhere.)
However- how can you possibly say memes have not been transmitted when
people actually go out and buy the product? As Stephen has noted, is that
not an obvious clue?
