SA: I said "our time", meaning, we are beating a dead horse, you and me,
especially since your beef is with Arlo. I'm still think you didn't answer his
questions, but it seems as if you brought something up with Arlo and back-off.
If you think otherwise, argue with Arlo.

SA: How is that personal? How is any of this not-personal? Bo is trying to
hijack the moq for he says Pirsig didn't even know what he was writing about,
so, the guy who invented, who created a philosophy called the moq doesn't know
his own philosophy? I can see disagreeing on certain points of the moq,
certain points that do nothing to the core of what the moq is, but once
somebody starts to tear down the basic aspects of the moq, well, it's no longer
the moq, it is a NEW philosophy, but for some reason wants the name of this
metaphysics, he wants to continue to call what he has come up with admist these
core moq issues - the moq. He needs to change his philosophy into a new name
and quit stealing all the work and experience that Pirsig went through in order
to come up with the moq. My interpretation is one that respects that this
metaphysics is not my own, but it is a metaphysics that we can learn from and
dynamically understand and have our own
thoughts, our own interpretations, but at a certain point when somebody tries
to tear down the core issues of a metaphysics, then they tear down the
metaphysics all together and it is no longer their interpretation, it is a new
philosophy and they need to come up with a new name for their philosophy. It's
philosophical Platt.
