Hi Marsha Take a chair as an example... lets make it the chair I'm sitting in now. I am sure everyone here has seen such a chair. It is defined as an office chair. It has an elongated back, plastic arms, and rolls around (should I find the need) on little plastic rollers. It is covered with some kind of cloth, perhaps synthetic though I am not sure. It is comfortable and useful. It is disrete from everything else that is around it... the table my computer rests upon, the computer I am writing on, and the rest of the world. It is important to remember though that within the framework of the MOQ, the chair is a static pattern of value, not an object. The chair is not just a comglomeration of plastic, metal, and cloth. Someone intellectually thought of the chair and someone else manufactured it. Still someone else sold the chair. The chair is a discrete part of the inorganic, biological, social, and intellectual value that makes up the world yet it is in no way independent of the world. Does that make sense?
