Mark said:
I do not discount the possibility that this formula may be encapsulated by Rorty, but as Rorty does not use a value lead metaphysical framework, i should need a great deal of convincing before valuing it.

Matt:
I want to simply suggest that people read Rorty as placing values at the center of his philosophy. I don't have the energy or spirit to argue for this anymore, but I have in the past, though nobody believes me. I believe the issue between Rorty and Pirsig is not values, but metaphysics. If you value metaphysics greater than values, then you'll discount Rorty wholesale. But if you value values, then you'll find some use for him.
