Prof Tim wrote,

"A meme is a pattern of stimulus that effects a mind such that... (it
causes) that subspace of A{m} (which contains the replication meme, as well
as it's related meme-complex) to be mapped from A{m} to I{n} (n is the new
host)."

Nice operational definition -- it encompasses the "two mind problem" as
well, which is the key. I like the way this is going mathematically...
Let's adopt this def provisionally and see what gives?
