Everything has quality. LIla has quality. The question is where on the 
spectrum of quality --  high to low -- does Wagner's Ring falls. I 
think light years above Mick Jagger, but below Beethoven, Mozart and 
Rachmaninov. You and Steiner place Wagner near or at the top. As I 
said, "To each his own." No fault either way. Just different static 
patterns of life history, as Pirsig explained in his SODV paper.
