Hi Dave,

I'm concerned about the kinds of questions that arise when one tries 
to put Pirsig's Metaphysics of Quality to use in one's own life.

It's a good question but the nature of this medium can't supply 
anything to your own experienced life. That's up to you. Words are 
all we get through this straw, you know? But you're right, the MOQ 
is supposed to matter where the rubber meets the road, in real life.

Matt:
Indeed, but I guess I have more confidence that talking is a medium 
that does supply things that we can take to our own experienced 
lives, and that talking through some of these problems helps the 
rubber meet the road.  I take it that that's what Dewey meant by 
"reflection" and "inquiry," and the general utility of "indirect 
experience" for "direct experience."  Otherwise, what would be the 
point of intellectual static patterns, you now?
