[MD] Quality of Writing

[Ant McWatt]

Ant McWatt comments:

I enjoyed the quote of Cather's that Ian posted below (in the context of Pirsig's teaching methods at MSC) but, at the same time, that's a damn good point, Ron.  

However, that leaves us the question of what makes for a "first class reader"?!

Best wishes,

Ant

Assuming' of course, one is a first-rate reader.
