How can you `want' to do something without memes? If your `wants' are
just emergent drives from your memesphere, then surely its not a
seperate epiphenomenon.
You just expressed the idea of running around, beating people with a
telephone. By the definition we've been throwing around loosely, that's
clearly a meme and one the componants of were probably kicking around in
your memesphere before then. Your memes don't necessarily act on each
other in an entirely one:one basis; clearly some, like `illegal acts
will likely get me punished' operate as supressors of entire classes of
memes from thresholding on actual behaviour.

There is something that happens to an enemy when he sees his home
and family stepped on by a hundred ton metal man. -- Arkon Verian

Of all the weapons of the Empire, the greatest and most respected
were the Metal Knights. These Knights had served the leaders of the
Bendar for Generations, righting wrongs and bringing fear to the
Empire's Enemies. It is said that these metal giants were shaped
like men so that the alien servants of Evil would know that it was
Man who defeated them.
