Andre:
I think Annotation 99 may throw some light upon this issue:

'Dynamic Quality and chaos are both patternless, and so it would seem
they have a lot in common, particularly the fact that you can't say
anything about them without getting into static patterns. But if you
do, you can say that Dynamic Quality is good and precedes static
improvement. It is the source of experience. Chaos, by contrast is the
condition of total destruction. You can't call it either good or bad.
It is not the source of anything'.

[Krimel]
What a depressing quote. Chaos is not always a destructive force in fact it
is the creative power of the universe. Order is a subset of chaos. If this
was a fairly new idea when Pirsig wrote Lila is was not 10 years later. He
really should know better.
