   Heh, they lasted the whole trip.

   The kids were so incredibly photogenic: playful, poignant and poised at the same time.

   I am back in the office now, but have thousands of photos that I have not even had a chance to review yet… More to come.

   Language of Imitation = Memetic Code… We are machines of imitation, both in our bodies, through generations, and in our minds, representing the emotions of others through our empathy.

   Further increasing our memetic fitness is going to be very important if we want to proceed in our trajectory of building a planetary civilization.

   Your photos here are symbolizing this beautifully.
