[MD] Some historical perspective

Bo:
He  did, but why, oh why, did Pirsig refuse to "translate" ZAMM in the 
light of the MOQ thereby leaving us with one Quality as the real thing 
and then the quality of the MOQ as some secondhand imperfect 
article with Static Quality even lesser value -  "mere concepts" as you 
harp on.  

Marsha:
It seems to me there is a difference between stating that spovs are
ever-changing, interrelated, interconnected, relative and 'conceptually
constructed' and stating that they are 'mere concepts'.  I have not used the
words 'mere concepts', but I cannot elevate static patterns of value to an
equivalent of a thing-in-itself either. These spovs represent a provisional
world.  Is it a world that is ontologically indeterminate and
epistemologically indeterminate???   

Honestly, sometimes I just want to stick to Quality being equivalent to
'there is nothing to know and no one to know it'.  Period.  End-of-story.
Mu.  Ohm.  Shanti, shanti, shanti...

Bo:
You once spoke of walking the beaches somewhere. Do a "portrait of 
the artist as a beach-comber" (smiley). 

Marsha:
Good idea.  I need a muse too.
