Are you using 'memory' is the usual way?  Or does a metal spring, for instance, have a memory 
of its former shape?

"I believe there are number of philosophic systems, notably Ayn Rand’s “Objectivism,” that call the “I” or “individual” the central reality." - LC

I don't know who in LC said this but it is confused.  For Objectivists, the I is not the "central reality".
For them the I is the center of value & morality, but unlike the MoQ, they do not hold that everything is value.

So, is your point that there are blue objects in the world and everyone in the same culture sees
these blue objects as the same?

So are you saying that when the city of Los Angeles experiences
an earthquake, it doesn't do so in the precise MoQ sense?  If so, why?
