Wow, Tim. You're looking into my mind. But, dammit! You're giving away
one of the punchlines early. It was exactly this sort of image I was
thinking about
when I looked at David's original T-grid.
Richard, of course, introduced me to this idea in VoM. He talks therein about
intentionally selecting memes and then allowing "cognitive dissonance" to alter
your meme sphere. Power of faith? Who knows. I haven't completely made
sense of it (to myself) yet.
