A rigorous mathematical analysis of the formation of hierarchical, heterarchical and dual networks in CogPrime systems has not yet been undertaken, and would certainly be an inter- esting enterprise. Similar to the theory of small world networks, there is ample ground here for both theorem-proving and heuristic experimentation. However, the qualitative points made here are sufficiently well-grounded in intuition and experience to be of some use guiding our
