[edit] Non-gene reproduction
Thanks for the answers to some of my questions. I do understand at least some of the definition of gene (having gotten halfway thru a Mol. Bio. degree ~6 years ago), though I do think I probably was miscongealing the definitions of gene and cistron (though cistron is too short for what I was fully thinking of, I was thinking of that as well as the entire transcription frame product). Thanks also for clarifying which kind of gene is generally refered to in memetics.
I am uncertain whether you are fully correct in your answer to question number 5, but it has given me more to think about. A single symbol can represent multiple concepts, a single concept can be (if properly understood) represented by multiple perceptual schemes/frameworks/symbols. These might be considered different memes, probably analogs or workalikes. I seem to innately differentiate between concepts and shells (symbols) which hold them, something you indicate most memetics texts don't do. An analog of phenotypic vs genotypic. Or perhaps I've misunderstood, I'll have to reread and think about your responses a bit.
- 6)I don't think this question makes sense.
I was attempting to refer to whether the concept of memes (as derived from genes) is the best way to represent what it is memes attempt to explain. Overly minimal usage of language on my part, sorry. --Formerly the IP-address 24.22.227.53

- Thanks for the responses, I shall look at it (even Dawkins, though he implies that I am insane in Unweaving the Rainbow: but do any of us really tie our life's hopes to the ultimate fate of the cosmos anyway? Of course we don't; not if we are sane.

- ;-P -- fortunately not all of them, and I expect the possibility of dying frustrated in these hopes.)
[edit] Re: Jamie Miller
Okay, I let him know (I was just sending him PMs through Flickr so I don't know his e-mail). This is the Google query I found it with:
"i just lost the game" daterange:2448713-2452000 -2006 -2005 -2004
Yeah, it was mostly luck... Ashibaka tock 22:50, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
- He didn't get my e-mail address... I found his Flickr account after doing a separate (and similarly complicated) Google query. Ashibaka tock 21:43, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] First references to the Game
First references I can remember to the game were probably in 2003... I've only been a participant since 2004.
Just a bunch of mostly students, some at the University of Limerick in Ireland. Various acquaintances "playing" the Game are now all around Ireland and the UK.

I see you added a video and a transcript to that article. Please see my comments on the talk page...I'm wondering where the transcript came from. Thanks! Rx StrangeLove 16:31, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the response. Mind if I move these comments to the talk page? I have some concerns about the transcript...Rx StrangeLove 16:39, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
