I'm sorry, when did I say that Pirsig said "all 
Victorian values were bad". But masterful attempt at distortion here, Platt.

[Platt]
No, that was your clear implication. You can run, but you can't hide.

[Arlo]
My "implication" was to point out Pirsig's 
feelings about moving backwards towards 
Victorianism, the position you advocate, which I did and will do again.

"... from the early seventies on there has been a 
slow confused mindless drift back to a kind of 
pseudo­Victorian moral posture... [but] the 
Hippie revolution was the moral movement. The 
present period is the collapse of values" (LILA)

That he said there were, or were not, some good 
qualities about Victorianism is neither implied 
nor disputed. In fact, it doesn't matter at all in this context.

I hide from nothing.
