But an important variable is being overlooked here and that is the different kinds <strong>of</strong> memory<br />

and cognition inherent to the bio-brain-architectures <strong>of</strong> the various species and the changes<br />

that occurred through evolution, in particular to our species.<br />

The monkey itself having changed little in some 60 million years has been and continues to be<br />

bio-brain architecturally very limbic, their processes <strong>of</strong> cognition and memory are and we can<br />

assume have always been very limbic meme-tation driven, what ever Hollywood’s revisions <strong>of</strong><br />

evolution in Planet <strong>of</strong> The Apes. They are and have always been absent<br />

Broca’s area and still have less frontal-lobe development than even our earliest family branch<br />

A. ramidus and A. anamensis <strong>of</strong> nearly 5 million years ago.<br />

All attempts to understand our Sapiens Sapiens processes <strong>of</strong> memory and cognition through<br />

comparisons made between us and other creatures must be stated within the context <strong>of</strong><br />

evolution. Recall that we Sapiens-Sapiens are the further evolution <strong>of</strong> a branch called H.<br />

habilis <strong>of</strong> the family tree <strong>of</strong> our species 6 million years <strong>of</strong> evolution, <strong>of</strong> some 2 million years<br />

ago. It was then that our species acquired an important addition to our bio-brain system called<br />

a Broca’s area without which we would not have arrived to the status <strong>of</strong> Sapiens Sapiens.<br />

Recall that in the prior to Habilis 4 million years our family tree within our then status as<br />

Hominid was in bio-brain-architecture, in design and wiring, which can be argued<br />

incrementally evolved to our Sapiens Sapiens 6 times more pre-frontal-lobe system<br />

development than the chimpanzee was absent Broca’s area.<br />

All comparisons and analogy between us Sapiens Sapiens in the present and others <strong>of</strong> our<br />

species and other creatures must be done with caution. Always keeping in mind that evolution<br />

has gifted us with a pre-frontal, Broca’s and other language area advantages that in architecture<br />

and wiring permits in their inherent potential, an at least 6 times exponentially greater potential<br />

for cognition and memory in abstraction than the Chimpanzee, and the Chimpanzee is a genius<br />

compared to the Monkey.<br />

What confuses the uninitiated about our inherent potential in memory and cognition, is that<br />

our potential in dominance in abstraction and free-will in intellect, is so easily lost, subverted in<br />

a disfranchising acculturation that is limbic-dominant, and inherently retributive in logic and<br />

intellect. It is not easily unraveled, this history <strong>of</strong> cultural subverting <strong>of</strong> our since post-H.habilis<br />

inherent potential in abstraction and complexity in sematic in language. Without which by the<br />

way there is no free-will in intellect, without which there is no<br />

authentic moral and ethical higher purpose.<br />

Go ahead I dare you count the generation acculturated to an acculturation which in its loyalty<br />

to our pre-H.habilis species history <strong>of</strong> limbic-system dominance, has served to perpetuate this<br />

history. Recall now I speak <strong>of</strong> a loyalty <strong>of</strong> at least 4 million years <strong>of</strong> pre-habilis bio-brain<br />

systems inherent dominance in limbic-logic, in limbic memory and cognition and some 2<br />

million years <strong>of</strong> an evolving inspired by abstraction limbic-complexity <strong>of</strong> loyalty.<br />

Gerald Edelmans theory <strong>of</strong> re-entry, understanding its development within his exploring the<br />

bio-brain system processes <strong>of</strong> the limbic-dominant monkey, contributes much to our<br />

understanding <strong>of</strong> our species pre-H.habilis evolving history <strong>of</strong> “will” in memory and<br />
