Well I came here originally looking for dialogue on James, to continue the lifelong dialogue between James and MY new hero, Royce. Royce the obscured, Royce the forgotten, Royce the lost cause. The more I study into that dialogue, the more apparent the reasons for Royce's (and Pirsig's) lack of acceptance by the academic philosophy world.

Interesting. Sometimes it takes just the tiniest bit of intellectual affirmation to destroy a man's thinking entirely. Probably the best possible thing I could say to anybody is "you need to think that through a little more carefully" and the worst is, "I see that you've got it all figured perfectly".
