Postmodernism or Pirsig? "One can then examine intellectual realities the same way
he examines paintings in an art gallery, not to find which one is the “real”
painting, but simply to enjoy and keep those that are of value. There are many
sets of intellectual reality in existence and we can perceive some to have more
quality than others, but that we do so is, in part, the result of our history and
current patterns of values."

Your got a problem with that?
