Steve, I have my interpretation of the MoQ, and where it agrees with Bo it agrees with Bo, and that is that. If I change my mind it will be because I change my mind, and not to be included in a consensus. Here's two quotes: that I like:
``Any philosophic explanation of Quality is going to be both false and true precisely because it is a philosophic explanation. The process of philosophic explanation is an analytic process, a process of breaking something down into subjects and predicates. What I mean (and everybody else means) by the word quality cannot be broken down into subjects and predicates. This is not because Quality is so mysterious but because Quality is so simple, immediate and direct. (ZMM, Chapter 20) "The question of "How do you justify the statement that Quality equals reality?" was the best one. The correct answer from a MOQ perspective is, "by the harmony it produces", but this answer is only for people who already understand the MOQ. Those who don't can't see the harmony and for them this answer is meaningless." (Pirsig, 2000) I cannot say this of you, but neither Andre, nor dmb seem to display a sense of harmony. Thank you.
