Hi Folks

If someone has that document I'd be more than happy to put it on moq.org 
- especially as I'm in the middle of completely re-building the web site 
at the moment! Lots to do and not enough hours in the day to do it!!
BTW I've kept the old website intact for historical purposes but also 
need to re-do all the links if you do have a squint at it - I'll get it 
finished at some point!!

Cheers

Horse

At least everyone subscribing to MOQ Discuss could read what we're talking about.  in fact, Horse can publish it properly at his website; that is if he wants to and (forgive the pun) has the... time!  😉

>> Otherwise, as I said previously, the 'MOQ & Time' paper (more or less anyway) can be found in the appendix of the 'Pirisg PhD PDF' from 2011.  If you want a copy let me know off-line!  However, don't you have a copyof this at hand anyway?
>>
>> Sadly, it's other people who are/have been 'blocking' full access to robertpirsig.org; (such as Will Heasman &  Ian Glendinning - the previous & present website 'hosts'/'IT administrators') over the last three to four years...  Like you I just want to get on with updating robertpirsig.org and 'taking the MOQ further' but there's little I can do about it for now if they're respectively having a breakdown/break-up or simply too busy/looking after elderlty parents or whatever the latest excuse it is...  There's an old phrase: 'If you want something done well, do it yourself'!!! 😉
>>
>> Kind regards all anyway,

>> P.S. Nowadays, I think of this song when thinking of people like Will & Ian (and a few other 'choice' people - some a lot worse than those two btw - I've had the misfortune to encounter in 'The World of the MOQ' over the years):

>> After these mourning years my mind's a bit rusty. I forgot to also mention the essay The Role of Evolution, Time and Order in Robert Pirsig’s "Metaphysics of Quality” by ANTHONY MCWATT of Liverpool University, & ERIC PRIEZKALNS with Responses by ROBERT M. PIRSIG JANUARY 1999

>> If Ant will give acess to the audience of this, and -The MOQ and Time-, I think that it will be a good start for a constructive discussion here. If they, by chance, is considered obsolete, what will there be else to start from?
>>
>> My own book about Money (Time is..? :-) isn’t mentioned anywhere and with it's massive lack of response I think you can leave that.. excerpt one little quotation in it from Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan ch XIII:
>> --- For such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be more witty, or more eloquent, or more learned;
>> Yet they will hardly believe there be many so wise as themselves: For they see their own wit at hand, and other mens at a distance. ---
>>
>> During the years we have been talking around so many aspects on MOQ and Metaphysics. Thousands of intense threads about SOM vs MOQ and so on.
>>
>> Now it is time to look further. The Corona crisis is pointing at some interesting aspects.
>> There are 4 layers in the MOQ perspective of the evolution. Viruses and political issues housed at different levels. One applicable issue to point at the MOQ-perspective could be like this: Why is it impossible to argue with a virus?
