Hi Rog, All:

discussions such as this where we apply the MOQ are so much more value than
just talking about what Pirsig said on page 237.)

I agree that this site should be about how to apply the MOQ, but in
order to do that there has to be agreement about what the MOQ says.
When someone claims that the MOQ says such and such and the
claim is clearly wrong, a quote is the best way to correct the error. In
cases where what the MOQ says is subject to different interpretations,
a discussion of those differences (quoting where necessary) is in
order. Even if such differences can't be resolved, you can take what you
think makes sense and leave the rest.

Some have attempted to make this site a platform for their pet Utopian
schemes to change the world according to some soup of
"humanitarian" sentiments which they never clearly enunciate.
Fortunately, most of those who join with an agenda in mind (always
requiring some form of government interference in people's lives) don't
hang around too long. The cannot jump the hurdle of how to make their
grandiose plans work without discouraging openness to Dynamic
Quality.

This is not intended to discourage anyone from voicing their opinions
(as if I could). As we kick ideas around there's always hope that DQ will
strike.
