Thanks Platt, this put things in the right perspective, I feel a bit sorry for Horse being caught with his pants down and his liberal attitude so badly tainted. Lots of weird interpretations - some directly undermining the MOQ - have been forwarded, but the one so obviously Phaedrus' original idea is tried suppressed. Steve's complaint of hijacking his thread is hilarious, what thread keeps its original content for more than a day? Anyway, the SOL refuses to go away for the obvious reason that it IS the idea that the MOQ is founded on and all threads on the MOQ will end there.Thanks also to Craig for his sound suggestion of letting the two interpretations compete. I don't quite know what the orthodox interpretation is except "don't mention the SOL" and/or "Pirsig has said" and very little of what the MOQ says, because once you start applying it the S/O intellect pops up like a jack-in-the-box.
