Hi Paul:
I'm disappointed you find it necessary to leave the forum for awhile. Your
posts have been models of clarity in presenting the basics of Pirsig's
MOQ. I will miss you contributions immensely.

I agree. But it's the contrast in positions, backed by worthy proponents,
that makes this forum so intellectually stimulating, regardless on what
level intellect actually resides. (We could argue the metaphysical
implications of the word "actually" for a long time.) :-)
Finally, as they say here in the Deep South of the U.S, "Y'all come back
soon." Only this time, I mean it. :-)
