Marsha said (repeatedly):
I'm not buying into the idea that the MoQ should be a form of American
Pragmatism...
Andre hopes she might be convinced by Pirsig:
"The MOQ is a continuation of the mainstream of twentieth-century American
philosophy. It is a form of pragmatism, of instrumentalism, which says that the
test of the true is the good. It adds that this good is not a social code or
some intellectualized Hegelian Absolute. It is direct everyday experience."
(LILA, p 373)

I fail to see the use of trying to push this on and on and on. I really believe
most contributors are clear on this, excepting Mary and you. What's your game?
Trying to score points or do you just like the attention? It is reaching the
yawning stage.
dmb says:
Exactly. It's a game. And I don't mean that in the good way. Whatever the
game's object is, it certainly has nothing to do with the MOQ. It has nothing
to do with a reasonable assessment of the textual evidence. It has nothing to
do with philosophical discussion or inquiry. If there is any legitimate point
to this game, it surely alludes me.
