Well Arlo...as Phaedrus told De Weese (about the lightbulb) : you have to have 
some familiarity!

[Arlo]
I suppose. As I said, finding linguistic contradiction in language is a kid's 
game. And when wielded well, a Koan. Everyone is familiar with the former, many 
the latter. I remember the day my daughter "discovered" the sentence "this 
statement is false", I could see the smoke coming from her ears (a la Mudd's 
Women). Zeno's paradoxes are still fun tavern topics. And if "all this is just 
an analogy" means that for some Pirsig is "profoundly incoherent" for setting 
himself up for a recursive linguistic contradiction, then so be it...
