What Marsha is doing here is what Marsha has been doing forever.
And you're right. This is what winds me and others up.
Marsha will not answer questions because she cannot answer questions 
because what she says has little or no substance - which is why she 
endlessly repeats her mantra.
Marsha may have missed the whole point of a forum which is set up to 
discuss a metaphysics - but there are those out there who haven't missed 
the point.

And it would be nice if this forum returned to its purpose - which is to 
discuss Robert Pirsigs Metaphysics of Quality.
Not the musings of an airhead.
