    joe:I do not know what 'off-list' and '(automatically?!) off-list' means.
    In my posts I simply hit the 'reply' button in Outlook Express and start
    snippin and typing. If I have really breached etiquette, I am sorry. Does
    it mean 'off levels', or 'off-subject' or 'off-method' or 'off-my-rocker' or
    off-kilter or what?

    joe: extending the glasses metaphor was my
    attempt to express my understanding of how moq differs from som culture. I
    will try once again to describe my possible scenario of moq culture
    suggested from the writings of RP.

    A sentient being has a cognition that is initialized by an instinctive sense
    of reality which develops patterns and communicates them. Quality! This is
    my conclusion from Persig's stories that (a baby learns, and Phaedrus as a
    teacher of rhetoric).

    Quality is both indivisible as dq and a divisible pattern sq preserving dq's
    value. My conclusion from (Lila)

    Existence as dq of sq is indivisible. This is contrtary to som subjective
    and objective. My conclusion from (the glasses metaphor. I added
    rose-colored, and blue-colored glasses to emphasize the difference.)

    Value (purpose, good) is indivisible as dq or sq and as a pattern sq for
    action incorporates the prolcess of pattern building. My conclusion from
    (plain's speech, and the existence of moral orders.)

    Comments and examples of my understanding of an applied moq culture:

    Pattern building, in its process, is different from the abstraction of som.
    Mathematics and logic are derived from the structure of the instinctive
    sense. Whether a pattern is creative, destructive, or preservative is
    likewise determined from the structure of the instinctive sense.

    The goal of education is to train and develop the instinctive sense. Native
    Americans evolved a culture that spoke from the center of themselves. They
    could tell when people were lying.

    Other applications of moq culture: the CEO static latch of robber barons,
    individuals, boards of trustees, and accountants have shown to be defective
    for society. Static laws can be bypassed by deception, or dynamic
    perception. A creative correction comes from moq culture. War as static
    latch for preserving a society by the use of weapons of mass destruction is
    shown to be immoral. Destroying a society to preserve another society is
    not moral, it is cannibalism. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

    (As I reread this I don't know what it has to do with MD levels, so I
    re-named the subject MD moq culture. Such a MD doesn't exist yet, but hope
    springs eternal.)
