[MD] Pirsig and Socratic method (a question for Ant)

[X Acto]

 Anthony,  
 Thank you for the response, Interesting how both the Zen approach and the Socratic approach 
aim for similar ends using similar techniques.I understand, per the Phaedrus that Socratic 
method is more along the lines of the ability to argue pros and cons to arrive at a new understanding 
of the question and the exposition of prejudices rather than an actual answer to it. 

Perhaps I over reach. 

One wonders at the symbolism in Plato's Phaedrus where the discusion takes place 
by a stream under a plane tree and a chaste tree, an indiginous Greek tree and one 
indiginous of the east. Many thanks, and in fact it does change how one interprets his work. 

Best wishes -Ron 

Hows that Marsha?
