Greetings,
JON:
Would it be fair to say, Struan, that if Pirsig had only written ZMM and not
LILA, you would have no urge to refute him? Just curious, since your
previous
posts suggest you quite Pirsig's first book.
Yes it would be fair. ZMM is a great novel. I enjoyed it immensely and it
worked wonders for getting people interested in real philosophy. Good on
him, I say.
Platt. I agree that members can make up their own minds from our respective
postings. I am happy to stick to mine.

Oh great. Mr 'striving for the Good' has lost his toys once again.
Elephant; I didn't say that you didn't send me any e-mails. I said that I
didn't recall a single word of it - and I don't. Is it too much to expect
you to engage your brain at least once a day. And I'm sure I didn't say
anything to you in private that I didn't also say in public. My God,
everyone knows that I don't hold back, and, funnily enough, I posted almost
the exact same words that you quote to this forum.
ELEPHANT, HAVING NO RESPECT FOR THAT WHICH IS GOOD, QUOTES *A PRIVATE
E-MAIL* FROM ME WITHOUT PERMISSION!!!!:

I WROTE TO THE FORUM ON 11/01/2001:
"It is very amusing to wind you up and watch you get your knickers in such a
serious twist, Horse. . . . . While I relish the role of sad, brainless
person with no life on
occasion, you seem to be taking it far too seriously."
Shock, Horror, hold the front page. . . . . Struan says the same thing to
Elephant as he does to everyone else!!! Whatever next?
Now why don't you spend some of your energy trying to find a) a brain and
b)paid employment instead of writing bollox for 24 hours day, Mr 'currently
looking for a job'.
3WD. They were never meant as kind words and I still agree entirely with
what you wrote. As for 'blinking on and off', some of us work for a living
and have far more important things to do than answer every single point put
to us. There is nobody here (bar Elephant who sits on his arse most of the
time) who contributes to every topic and I attract enough comment to fill 48
hours each day. Have a look at the huge volume of traffic on my threads
compared to others and then have a look at the amount of points put to me in
comparison to everyone else. I'm not prepared to spend that sort of time
here. Sorry. Oh and thanks for the compliments. I shall waste no time in
formulating a response.
