Hi John,

> And I still disagree vehemently  that emotions are biological.

I assume if you don't see emotions as biological that you then see
them as social. I see emotions as the "carbon atom" of the social
level. While carbon is inorganic it the root of the biological level.
Emotions are similarly themselves biological, but it is emotions that
provide the groundwork for selection based on social quality. Without
emotions there could be no social status, celebrity, honor, etc.,
but emotions themselves are part of a mammal's biological response to
its environment.

Best,
Steve
