Hi MarshaV and All, The con Cum (with)? (part of conceptual?) left Pirsig with no alternative but to opt for indefinable DQ. Con seems to be attached to Cum latin for with. Con (with consciousness) and ceptual (capture ?) used together seem to be strange bedfellows! But metaphysics DQ/SQ

Hi MarshaV, Negation, not this not that, cannot locate the reality of dynamic quality. Reality requires a positive assertion in existence. Reality does not exist in the throat of negation. I.E., nothing. Negation only clears away debris for the understanding of DQ. The reality of Existence is
