Platt:
None of the above. It's Quality, the "force of evolutionary creation." 
(Lila, 17} Chapter 11 pretty much explains the whole thing. 

Ron:
none of the above.....Chptr 11 pretty much explains how this force has no intentional direction
plus I'm addressing what you are saying not Pirsig. Seems to me you are splitting hairs as not
to agree with Arlo about anything. Cutting off ones nose to spite their own face so to speak.
I just find it odd you contradict two of your own comments, which incidently contradict eachother too.

How is it that you understand Pirsig better than your own opinons?
