quoting G. Duncan on behaviorism:
"THAT'S the interesting part of the story and that's why I'd be grateful for a behaviorist response. I don't care about the ethics of the treatment. I care about the efficacy of the treatment, which is why I tried to use the word "mistreatment"." I am not a behaviorist, but I am interested in the small, increasing amount of information/knowledge on how behaviors are/could be related to "flash frozen" memories that build up enough in our personal system to almost or maybe become DNA inbuilt. For example:. running from syber toothed tiger; It is believed, somewhat demonstrated, that some of these memories are from our past in this lifetime, but others are built into our system from ancestral life happenings; Quite a few in psychology world are arguing much of them are stored in basal ganglia, only triggered upon some sort of situation that ignited that memory bank. My personal experiences argue this is true. If so, then difficult to sort of behavior's causes, unless knowing the "map" of that person's frozen memories. Possibly these ancestral memories can be mapped out with much study, if we find that they can be divided by area of the world our ancestors are from, etc. BUT, we don't all know, being all somewhat mixed breeds (Scandinavians are a mix of all over the world, for example -- in their background ancestries based on many migrations, prisoners taken, etc.) where we are totally from. So figuring out our "memory maps" might prove to be almost confoundingly difficult.

Thanks, Glen. Yes, not a quote of G. Duncan, although he will refrain from commenting on whether it would be an insult!
