Hi Carrie and welcome, Certainly questions are open for discussion. You may receive conflicting views, but it is all in the aid of learning. At some point you may click with one or more contributors which can result in a fruitful string of emails.
I read ZAMM back in the '70s and then thought a lot about it, integrated it with other stuff. Then I read Lila which was a little more difficult for me since it did not necessarily agree with my extrapolations. So I am here also to broaden my view. There can be a whole bunch of posts per day, so you can always just read the ones which pertain to your subject. Often I will digress into seeming nonsense and opinions, and often the posts will become less about Pirsig and more about current affairs, which can also be interesting once you get to know the characters involved. My purpose is personal development through a reality that I found many years ago through reading Pirsig. I am also a resident of CA, although in the decadent South. Ask all the questions you want. Cheers, Mark Hello all, My name is Carrie, as a stay-at-home mom/wife in Davis California, I find myself with little social outlet and an urge to some intelligent conversation once in a while. I'm a big fan of Robert Pirsig, since reading his Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance in High School and finishing Lila last year. I have a question about this list which is do you guys see yourself as having any purpose in the long run? Like promoting Pirsig's views in society? Or is it mainly centered around socializing and conversation? Or is it more answering questions? I hope answering questions is good because I have quite a few! Thanks, Carrie Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/ Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
