A. Don't expect me to gullibly agree with anything you say. You are free to
    do so.
B. I have never implied that I am right. I am very convinced that memetics is
    a fad and many of you are just gullibly going along with the fad.

Feel free to prove to me that memetics isn't a fad but a science.
