[MD] Two Realizations

I needed an interpreter. Steve needed an interpreter. We both looked to MD. He got his answer then.  He really respected the thinking on this forum. The high quality intellection impressed his socially-starved soul.  He said he could barely keep up with the intellectual quality he found on this list.  Why he understood, that Robert Pirsig HIMSELF sometimes communicated with members of this list, affirming what they thought.
... I wonder what that was?  I wonder what response he got?

It was probably me. I vaguely recall feeling sympathy for his case at the time and even as you tell it again from your perspective I tend to sympathize with Steve's side.

Sorry.

It's probably because I hate intrusions. Ringing doorbells, phones, barking dogs and people who stop by without calling. In fact, for years we had neighbors right across the street. They had no sense of personal boundaries. Invite themselves to parties, stop by for a chat as we're packing the car for trip, drop by at all hours, stand too close, talk to loud. They were smart and talented people but they were just plain rude. Not cause they grew up in a rough inner city neighborhood or anything, they were just too self-absorbed to be sensitive to such things. I don't know if that's what's going on with you and Steve, I just know dropping by unannounced usually doesn't work for me.
