Dave:

 

As usual, my [conscious] motives were not so high falutin’.  As usual I am 
trying to get others to think with me because I cannot think alone.  To the 
extent that I am a philosopher, it probably is because of that book and I am 
really interesting in the role it played in the lives of others.   For 
instance, one friend told me that his response was to go out and buy a motor 
cycle.  Also I am interested in what a second reading, 40 plus years would be 
like for each of you.  It was quite a revelation to me.    So, as general, you 
give my conscious mind too much credit.  I can’t speak for the unconscious one. 
 

 

Stephen, 

 

If you mean, the original Greek figure, no I don’t.  He’s briefly described 
somewhere in zamm as a sophist, but that’s already more than I know.

Colleagues, 

 

I wonder if Pirsig’s Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was a thing for 
any of you, and if you would be interested in pursuing a thread about it and, 
if so, if you would be willing to get it down off your shelf and flip through 
it, looking for the parts you loved and the parts you hated.
