Dale,
"Other possible behaviors" got me thinking:
All behavior has to be "constructed", so how do we get anything really
new? Many times we can transfer behaviors from other contexts with only
minor modifications, but the behavior would still be new in the current
context. Or we can combine behavioral components in different ways to get
new behaviors. But can we generate new "components", and if so, how?
I think we probably can (and probably have to be able to) generate new
components, I don't have an answer for the how at the moment.
