Bo said to JoVo:
After my "second coming" however I have managed to make this forum's
heavy-weight Matt Kundert understand the MOQ by the SOL-light (Bei'm
Sonnenschein) and that's no small feat. He has objections of course, but his
are from the Kundert "factory" and not like these ever new arrivals who
think I am a MOQ heretic.
Matt:
Please, please---do not call me a "heavy-weight." I get enough flak for
what I say, I don't need any more by being called "_this_ forum's
heavy-weight." There are enough heavy-weights around here, all standing in
different positions, to not try and rank them. The weight or weightlessness
of any particular person is easily felt by every person, judging for
themselves, by the very act of participation in the MD. We don't need a
chart.
But, I will say this, Bo: what I've realized in this last conversation with
you (which, pace you apparently, I'm not done with yet) is that I always
did, basically, understand what the SOL-MoQ was. It is, apparently, what I
first thought it was when I first read it presented. As Platt just said, it
isn't that complicated. What makes it complex is your very obscure way of
presenting it and trying to differentiate it from other dominant
interpretations, Pirsig's or whomever's. (The thing with Paul is just
bizarre on your part.) My opinion right now is that the SOL interpretation
of the MoQ is not very different from the other ones, which makes the
bombastic way you present it seem a little much. I'm still not particularly
sure about the differences, but I think most of it has to do with certain
particular claims you make in presentation (like it being the "true MoQ,"
which, I imagine, is part of the chaff thrown out after my factory gets
done), rather than the core message of it (except, possibly, on one point).
Matt
