Platt, Yes, not being able to even mount a serious arguement is even more embarrassing. Last I checked, one of the the rulez of the charter is to discuss Robert Pirsigs books and his MoQ .
This not a forum dedicated to the political views of Platt or anyone else. You can voice personal opinion or you can back it up with some sort of relevancy to the MoQ. So far you have been unable to do so. -Ron ________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, June 8, 2009 10:42:12 AM Subject: Re: [MD] The New Socialism - Wired Magazine On 8 Jun 2009 at 9:24, blue-jay maple wrote: > > > Nick previously: > > > Liberty has always been a scary concept.

Much of it has been typical left-wing demonizing. The rest has been surprisingly superficial.
