!!!Meme-replication
----
-To be replicated, a [meme] must pass successfully through four subsequent stages: 1) [assimilation|meme-assimilation] by an individual, who thereby becomes a host of the meme; 2) [retention|meme-retention] in that individual's memory; 3) [expression|meme-expression] by the individual in language, behavior or another form that can be perceived by others; 4) [transmission|meme-transmission] of the thus created message or meme vehicle to one or more other individuals. This last stage is followed again by stage 1, thus closing the [replication|meme-replication] loop. At each stage there is [selection|meme-selection], meaning that some memes will be eliminated.
