Dear Andre/all, 

I have been thinking these Copleston Annotations and my last conversation with 
Bob Pirsig about them about four years ago. I now realise that Pirsig - in his 
quiet Zen way - was asking me to remove the Annotations (being unfinished 
"off-the-cuff" notes) from robertpirsig.org.

I'll therefore be removing them from the website tomorrow.  In other words, if 
you'd like a copy of them, I'd download them asap!  

Best wishes,

Anthony

Anthony to John Feb 6th 2014:

Anyway, I thought I better "jump in" and issue a "caveat" about Pirsig's 
comments in the Copleston Annotations before anyone got too carried by 
his comments there i.e. he never read most of the primnary sources that 
Copleston is referring to.? Moreover, it's the only document at 
robertpirsig.org that he would have re-written or edited as it was 
originally written just to assist me in my PhD work and was originally 
not meant for the wider world.
 
Andre:

Thank you for clarifying this Anthony as I never quite understood what 
the 'status' of the Copleston Annotations are. I have always regarded 
Pirsig's treatment of the Copleston document as [an example of] a 
critical thinking exercise from the MoQ perspective. You seem to confirm 
this.
 
Anyway, I'm glad you 'jumped in'.
