Well guys,
I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I'm not sure I can dedicate
the time necessary to do the job right. You both write a LOT, and
usually about Mysticism which, as dmb points out, eludes me, though
it might be more accurate to say that it is the part of Pirsig that I
find least interesting for my purposes.
However, I'll point out evasions or shifts or circularities when I
see them, but your posts often refer to this and that from another
post referring to another, etc, not to mention references to sources
on mysticism and philosophy. Tracking all this stuff down to check
for consistency and completeness would be impossible for me, time-
wise.
But if either of you feels aggrieved and can point to specific
questions and what you feel to be inadequate or evasive or shifted or
circular responses, I'll do my best to arbitrate.
Later,
Mark Steven Heyman (msh)

I was just wondering if MSH would agree to act as a sort of arbiter,
not to say 'he's right and he's wrong', but to say 'he's raised a
point that you haven't addressed' and things like that. Just to help
with fending off the mudslinging and keeping us 'on message'.
Whaddaya
think?

Sounds OK to me. A translator, a ref, a third party is usually
helpful. Based on his posts, MSH strikes me as fair-minded. It seems
to me that the mystical aspects have largely eluded him so far and so
its not that I'm asking MSH to act as MOQ expert or anything.
Fairmindedness is all it takes. And he knows an evasion when he see
one too. The guy even gives humorous and accurate labels to the
various kinds of shifts and evasions. Yep, he's the guy.
