HiAll,

Steve: It's such a wonder that academia isn't knocking down walls to get in on the conversation. I agree with Matt that for Pirsig to become of interest to academia, either people interested in Pirsig need to get into academics and become important by saying interesting things about what academia is already interested in, or someone already important needs to get interested in Pirsig. How else could it possibly happen? Certainly not through whining about being ignored. Do you really think there is some anti-Pirsig conspiracy at work? Or anti-new idea conspiracy? No one becomes important in philosophy or science or anything else in academia by repeating old ideas (unless it can be done in some new interesting way).
