    Hey Platt,

    Why would you think I would disagree with anything they had written? I've
    never found anything wrong with making Quality equal Reality. Making
    Quality ubiquitous, I have no problem. Making Quality absolute, I have a
    problem.

    The parts about always judging I think match up very well with Rorty. His
    translation would be "We are always judging propositions to see if the
    match up with our other beliefs." We are always in constant evaluation, as
    Horse said.

    What's also interesting is how Kantian the exchange sounds. The bit about
    judgment sounds very much like what Kant thought about judgement (I think).
     It would be another interesting place to see how/if Pirsig's extending
    Kantian positions.

    Matt
