I've mainly ignored the pot posts since my experience with pot is 
quite limited.  I've tried it perhaps four or five times, and each 
time was slightly different, and every time was while thouroughly 
drunk, so my experience is slightly marred in that respect.
In general, concerning XYZ; I also dislike the brash posting, and 
what seems to be a base assumption of the stupidity or ignorance 
of whomever s/he is addressing, not to mention the obfuscation... 
Nonetheless, I'm interested in XYZ's scientific approach to 
memetics.  (Due, of course, to personal interest and nothing 
more.)
I think XYZ would be very well served by doing one very simple 
thing: when responding to a post, quote the /entire/ post, and 
respond to every point made in the post... if a good point is 
made, then say, "good point", etc... I know we're here mainly 
to discuss memetics and not just to spread the civility meme, 
but discussing memetics civilly seems better (more useful) 
than the alternative.
