Er ... no, I used "paraphrase" in a too wide sense. He never said that. I just wish he would have drawn the conclusion of his own reasoning which would have forced on (in the this case) the distinction between symbols and what is symbolized, i.e. the S/O. But I'm just dreaming, Pirsig can't do it after having invested so much in his system of how MOQ "encases" SOM, the known inorg+bio=objects ...etc. and the ensuing explanations of how THIS does away with SOM's paradoxes (platypis). I say that the SOL interpretation just pertains to the 4th. level, it does, but this has wider ramifications among other that of doing away with these cumbersome things. Just push the button and I'll tell you more ;-) Bo Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
