[MD] A fly in the MOQ ointment

[X Acto]

Platt,
I'm trying to reduce both yours and Bo's assertions
down to basic general statements and was wondedring if I captured
both Bodvar's and your own opinions regarding what characterizes
the intellectual level and what you take the term "MoQ" to mean.
For the sake of clarity because to have any discussions as far as
differences of opinion, I believe I should get your point of view
correct before I try to discuss it.

Hi Ron,

Being mathematically challenged I find it hard to relate to your 
explanation. I'll take your word for it. But can't mathematics take off on 
purposes of its own that don't "represent reality?" If so, I would say it's 
relationship to reality (nature) is coincidental rather than 
representational.

But when it comes to math, I defer to your superior understanding.

Best,
Platt
