Sure, but you're not convincing me that "unlearning" exists. Mental
- whether anything can be "unlearned" at all
Habits can be changed. For example, when people travel
from Britain to the US, we expect them to learn to drive
on the right side of the road. Some of them struggle
with it more than others.
structures aren't overwhelmingly being erased -- but modified, extended
and some aspects are suppressed -- the original stuff is ALL PRETTY MUCH
STILL THERE. When the people return to Britain they won't need to re-
learn to drive from scratch, though they may have some inappropriate
reactions at times. They will not restart from zero.
