    Hi there Platt,

    you wrote;

    Matt maintains that Pirsig supports Rortyism, but I find precious
    little in Rorty's philosophy (of lack of it) that tackles the issue of
    morality that is the central theme of the MOQ. This apparent lack of
    interest in quality, values and aesthetics is my main complaint against
    Rorty. For example, it appears Rorty is not aware that truth is
    intimately connected to morality, even though pragmatist James was
    fully aware of the connection:

    my reply:

    If you had actually sought there is absolutely no doubt that you would have
    found, Rorty is ALL about MORALITY and Aesthetics, morality as the
    foundation of objectivity; namely in solidarity which is a moral term and
    Aesthetics as a way of moulding your life in to a beautiful work of Art;
    please do not say you sought, no way Platt, no way!

    Chris
