Liked the essay and the conclusion (greatly simplified) that static
quality is pattern and dynamic quality is not-pattern. It's a more
refined explanation than change vs stability and avoids arguments on
things like "constant changes" etc.
But still we're missing any mention of morality and how it fits into
this. Pirsig states quite clearly that dynamic quality is of a higher
morality than static. And, in case nobody noticed this Pirsig quote from
personal correspondence with Anthony, here it is again:
"Every time you discover for the first time that something is better
than something else - that is where Dynamic Quality exists. There is no
fixed static location for it."
Awaiting Keith's response
