[MD] The dirty doors of perception?

[Joseph Maurer]

Hi Mark and All,

I am thinking of levels in evolution.  Pirsig's metaphysics of Quality DQ/SQ
proposes that one level DQ is indefinable.  The other level SQ is definable
and limited since unlimited is indefinable.  Oddly enough as I ponder this I
expect that SQ is a higher level than DQ since it contains more definable
possibilities.  DQ as indefinable has no possibilities in thought only
possibilities in evolution.
