Nope. IMHO this misses Pirsig's insight into the social level. Just as a beehive or network of prairie dog burrows is not a social level pattern, building a house or group of houses is not a social pattern, even if done in co-operation with other humans. Nor is human behaviour to stay warm and protected social, rather than biological. Only the building of a social institution should count as social, e.g., ownership laws, legal liability, etc. Craig 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/md/archives.html
