[MD] Intellect's Symposium

[Mary]

Hello John,

I love you.  You are a great writer at times and have immense potential. I
look forward to reading your book someday.  I appreciate your talent and
hope to see more of your writing; however, we are not here to discuss Royce,
other than in whatever terms he can be juxtaposed with Pirsig.  The subject
at hand is the definition of Pirsig's Intellectual Level as it relates to
the Metaphysics of Quality.  DMB (hi Dave, nice to hear from you again!  I
was around when you were first posting and remember), DMB points out,
rightly so, that you (and apparently this Royce) are Hegelists.  That's
fine, but is not germane to the conversation. Spare me the Royce quotes
unless they relate to the MoQ in some way. 

Thank you John,

Mary
