Hi Ron: I take that as a "yes" to my question. To follow up, do you agree with Pirsig? "In the third box are the biological patterns: senses of touch, sight hearing, smell and taste. The Metaphysics of Quality follows the empirical tradition here in saying that the senses are the starting point of reality, but -- all importantly -- it includes a sense of value. Values are phenomena. To ignore them is to misread the world."
