Wow.  Great dialogue.  Lots to think about.  But now I'm thinking I may
disagree with the Great Man Himself.

"ANY reasoning of ANY kind"???  How do you know unless you've tried them
all?  The act of trying to fit Quality into SOM
 is a kind of reasoning.  The  Zen Koan is a kind of reasoning as one
wrestles with the S/O split until one is too tired to fight anymore.  There
are lots of kinds of reasonings beyond SOMish ways.    You'd have to have
some sort of mind in order to comprehend the central reality of the MoQ, and
a mind without reasoning is like a computer without  software.  A computer
without software  is known as a doorstop.  A mind without reason is even
less.

Y'all have to explain that one to me.

John the befuddled.
