Hi again Kevin;

Wouldn't it be great to get Mr. Pirsig's opinion of all this?!
Does the man himself ever frequent this forum do you know?

Using Pirsig's test for existence (from the philosophic school of realism)
"a thing exists [...] if a world without it can't function normally."  If it ban
be shown that a world without the Metaphysics of Quality
functions abnormally then it can be concluded that the Metaphysics of
Quality exists.  It would appear to me that the MOQ fails this test.
  
So where is the evidence that the Metaphysics of Quality is THE answer
to the question, "what is quality?"
