Satire is often nonsensical to those that either don't understand or
appreciate it - and Ron was doing to the MoQ what the SOLists are doing to the
MoQ. So if Ron's is nonsensical the same goes for the SOLists (or is it the
SIMians - I'm starting to lose track of the various nonsensical acronyms being
used to rape and torture Pirsigs work).

Right. I saw Ron's posts as a parody of the nonsense that goes on here, an
exaggeration of their distortions. It wasn't the sweetest way to make the point
but the point is quite valid.
It could have been a little funnier if his bad interpretations weren't so
exaggerated, if his satirical distortions were a little more plausible. But Ron
probably figured he had to go WAY over the top or the targets of his humor
wouldn't see it as a joke.
