ian glendinning said to Horse:
I have only one "grievance" here. ...The fact that Ant's site passes for
authoritative philosophical
material on Pirsig's MoQ, ...It's Ant's right to do that, it's his site,
but the public impression is important. ...Ant ...would be better to "clean
up his act", than leave the misleading impression on his own site.
dmb says:
Wow. This is quite a sight to behold. Its a stunning display of control
freakiness taken to a whole new level. Now you think you can tell Ant what
to do with his web site. You've really outdone yourself, and that really
takes some doing. Its breath-taking! Apparently, unlike a normal person, you
see no problem with such a thing. Since that's the case, as a matter of
principle, you shouldn't mind if I tell you what you can do with yours. I
think you should just shut her down. Or, at the very least, you should
remove all references to Robert Pirsig and the MOQ. You know, out of a sense
of duty to the public face of the MOQ, I don't think you should be allowed
to handle such material. You should only touch the MOQ in the privacy of
your own home and, for god's sake, please make sure everybody in the room is
wearing safety glasses. And take it down quickly, before Pirsig's lawyers
call. Sorry about that. I didn't want to tell on you. It just came up.
Or maybe its your site and my disapproval simply isn't relevant. What do you
think?
