I didn't notice you unsubscribed.
My point was not of intellectual rights (and unfortunately I lost the
posts)
My point was that I had some other points you might find relevant.
1) As in Algebra, you can parallel sets theory and linear transposition
for memetics (ie. define functions both via relations between sets and by
matrices multiplications). I think you can define functions as the result
of exposing memetic concepts (such as vectors, etc) to new memes.
2) My point was that a memetically thinking system identifies new memes
and reacts. I offered defining regular expressions for the recognition of
memes (I called it irrational computation) and made an inquiry that
com[putational tools for memetic research should be created.
