Hi dmb,

I did not present the 2005 quote as a RMP contradiction.  I presented the October 2005 quote as an updated view that RMP does not want the MoQ to fall within any philosophic tradition.  -  Maybe you can state how I presented a contradiction, rather RMP in October 2005 setting the record straight.  Maybe you do not understand 'contradiction.'   It seems I do remember you accusing me of a contradiction once before, but then one side of that contradiction you represented as mine was a pure, trumped-up fabrication where you could not produce the evidence that I made such a statement.  I remember.  I asked over and over and over again for you to produce the supposed statement, and, of course, you could not.

The Metaphysics of Quality's central idea that the world is nothing but value is not part of any philosophic tradition that I know of. I  have proposed it because it seems to me that when you look into it carefully it makes more sense than all the other things the world is supposed to be composed of. One particular strength lies in its applicability to quantum physics, where substance has been dismissed but nothing except arcane mathematical formulae has really replaced it."
