Particularly this: &quot;They can be defined as small sets of instructions that produce behavior. When enough of these instructions get together in a brain, a mind develops.&quot; This is <em>tabula rasa</em> with a vengeance -- a child is no one, nothing, subhuman, a blank slate, until he has had enough &quot;experience.&quot; The potential for harm in this idea is enormous.</p>tag:blog.limedaley.com,2018:/isso/133/4802005-06-02T17:47:46ZSursumCorda<p>I don't have time either, and I've never done one of those things before. But this one was kind of fun: http://sca.salemsattic.com/lwblog/post/1/211</p>tag:blog.limedaley.com,2018:/isso/133/4792005-06-02T15:45:49Zjoyful<p>It seems to me like those emails you get, &quot;tell me about yourself, fill in the blanks and send it to 10 people you know.&quot; There is only a vague connection between that and the description of a meme in the link you gave. I know some people have fun with those kinds of things, but I don't have time to do them. Plus I never listen to music on the computer.</p>
