Or perhaps Tuk, Dave was pointing out, in a polite and friendly way,
that just because RMP doesn't rush to talk to you it's nothing personal.
There are several people that I know that have his email address but we
take his advice and figure stuff out for ourselves. That's what he wants
for us to think for ourselves - i.e. Intellect over Society - not
hanging onto every word from 'The Great Author' !!
You should try it some time.

David,
nice. Now you're pretending it was your idea that I leave him alone.
Nothing else to do than try to get inside someone else's skin? I can't
even post a message on MD without someone trying to copulate with
it... that must be why Pirsig doesn't do so either.

Quoting david <dmbucha...@hotmail.com>:
I don't know what Robert Pirsig has been doing lately but normally
he drinks coffee at his desk each morning while reading the news and
the posts on this forum, among other things. If that's still true,
then he knows your email address and he knows you'd like to be in
contact. But so would many, many, many other people. And nobody is
capable of satisfying that kind of demand. Nobody. And he's retired,
likes to meditate, and otherwise keep to himself. Plus he's in his
80s. Please, don't take it personally if I suggest that you let it
go and leave him alone. And I take my own advice, by the way. I
could bother him but I don't. Out of respect for his peace of mind
and expressed wishes. He's done talking about the MOQ with fans.
That's all there is to it. True story. "I'm retired," he said, "you
guys take it from here."

I haven't noticed that Tim would've posted Pirsig's street address on
LS. Even if he did, I'd feel uncomfortable writing Pirsig had I
obtained his address in such a way.
At this point Pirsig, if in sufficient health, is perfectly capable of
figuring out who I am and what's my business. Meeting him would be an
honor and I wouldn't require a particular kind of a meeting. If he
anyway does not wish to contact me, why should I think any more of it?
A man of his age needn't think of work, that's for sure. There's more
to life, such as cooking sausages in the fireplace. That's what I'm
going to do next, anyway.

Tuk
