Vector

WorkInProgress


  1. Pathology. An organism, such as a mosquito or tick, that carries disease-causing microorganisms from one host to another.
  2. Genetics. A bacteriophage, plasmid, or other agent that transfers genetic material from one cell to another.
  3. Memetics. An agent that transfers memetic material from one host to another. For the most part, in a Virian context, a medium, method, or vehicle for the transmission of memes. Almost any communication medium can be a memetic vector.
  4. Church Of Virus. A member of the Church Of Virus (Abbr. Vr.) pl. Vectren. The VirusCommunity?.

Many groups address each other by "brother" or "sister" to engender a sense of family, e.g. "Thank you for that insight, Brother Tim." We can do the same with a genderless title. Using it in public may even enhance our cult status :-)
