So its possible I have not talked about memes enough and properly explained what they are. If you think a Meme is simply a funny picture on the internet then you unfortunately have been infected with the minor definition of the word and dont really understand the main definition of a meme. The word meme was coined by Richard Dawkins in the mid 70s in his book The Selfish Gene in order to explain how human thought is transferred from person to person. Thoughts, basically, are mental viruses that spread from person to person and almost every piece of information in your head is a meme. IMO, this realization is just as important for humanity as the discovery of genes and Dawkins will be spoken about in future history books in the same sentences as Darwin for this discovery. If you have never truly research memes or memetics I can not urge you more to do so. It is the whole basis of all my work.
