Hi Rob:

I share your frustration in trying to have a coherent discussion about
truth (or anything else for that matter) with those who are not absolutely
certain they exist.

About their protestations that "there are no absolutes" (a self-
contradiction if there ever was one), I agree with Pirsig who in another
context said, "But that the quality is low is absolutely certain." (LILA,
Chap.5)
