Krimel (patronisingly) said to DMB March 13th:

"You did a journeyman's job of attaching Nietzsche into Pirsig's narrative.
But it seems you have missed some of the boarder issues  at stake. You have
ignored areas of disagreement between the two and in the process left your
version of Pirsig looking a talented amateur, clueless of his subject matter."

Ant McWatt observes:

Krimel,

The second line in the above paragraph states:

"But it seems you have missed some of the boarder issues  at stake."

Did you mean "border" or "broader" here?  I just thought this spelling error was particularly amusing at the beginning of a post (loaded with philosophology) describing DMB as a "journeyman" and Pirsig as "looking [like] a talented amateur"!  

Moreover, if you are going to load a post with philosophology, it would be helpful if you could provide proper details of the articles and books that you are referring to.  As one of the articles in one of the links that you provided to DMB advises: 

         "Referencing: why do we have to bother with it? Referencing helps create a
          map of knowledge, a web of pathways in knowledge; and each researcher helps
          extend that knowledge. It means that we don't have to find out everything for
          ourselves all over again; we don't have to reinvent the wheel. In effect, referencing
          multiplies knowledge exponentially."

Yours philosophologically,
