I don't confuse, I find similarities.
If you are ocnfused, just change your terminology, call it
something appropriate, like meta-memes, or something not
appropriate, like say Cadillac, but in any case, you'll be using
memes to study memes.

There are good memes and bad memes. There are good vehicles
and bad vehicles. Autocontradicto non perdurabo.

That's because of you interpretaion of the terms.
A BBL is a book is a table is a tabernacle is a church of churches in
a city on seven hills.
And it will be overturned when the time comes.

Then study both.
Difference is but another realtionship between things.
Hebrew, Latin, Sankrit are natural languages that in their initial
forms are formal as well.
>>"formal" or "artificial" language, "natural" language, meme logic,
>What's "meme logic"?
Memes fuelling other memes in the same memeset, autocatalysis(like in the
formal imply symbol).
Incidentally "meme logic" can also be interpreted as "même logique"
meaning "same logic" in french.

And when the modellign itself is modelled on natural ?
And so on ?
