[Case]
Since I seem to have fallen off the wagon today anyway let me say the
Quality is not experience. It is neither this or that. You seem to have
met the Budha on the road. You should kill him.

[Case]
A virtual moderator slapping virtual wrists. Hmmm there may be a hint of
Quality in that.

[Case]
Since Quality is undefined, it can only be spoken of metaphorically. It is
like this or like that. I like to think that it is like probabilty. It
could be this or that. Maybe we can estimate the likehood of it being this
or that. Isn't that what the arguement is always about.
