William,
Regarding "hardwired potencies".
I am very aware that the human brain is not static in its  structure; 
including the neuronal networks. The human brain does have  biological 
parameters 
that differentiate it from other creatures, and even when  damaged and 
self-repaired it still remains within the confines of a human brain.  Though 
amusing, it 
would be most unlikely to suffer a severe head  injury, have it heal and 
become a baboon or aardvark (in brain structure  and function ;-)  Hardwired 
potencies are human inherited cognitive  traits.
My point to Frances was that I believe that all the  generative cognitive 
prejudices we have are attributable to our brain - the  inherent structure and 
functioning of it. Perceptual cropping is one such  cognitive prejudice that is 
inherited. Another would be the seeing human faces  in patterns that are not 
faces such as clouds and wood grain.
