    Hi

    The last bit is wrong, SO divide cuts reality/xperience
    up one way, DQ/SQ divide is another way. Pirsig
    suggests the advantages of the latter which I think are
    clear. In fact the DQ is like a reduced 'subject', i.e. having
    any static/patterned elements removed. this is a great idea
    because it really focuses in the undefinable/creative/dynamic
    nature of xcertain aspects of our experience, transcendent in fact,
    or a pouring forth of SQ into Being/experience.

    regards
    David M
