However you wish to rationalize it, what you propose is totalitarian style
censorship. But, not to worry. There are wiser heads among us. Thanks to all,
especially Case and of course our moderator, Horse. It is heartening to know
that on this site at least, unlike on many college campuses, controversial views
can be aired without fear of expulsion. Indeed, as Pirsig so rightly said, free
speech constitutes a hard fought victory of intellect over the social level. To
have that reinforced here is, without doubt, a salute to the Great Author whose
works we find so worthy of continual interest and discussion.
