Ah yes.  Web access to enable you to work.  While in pursuit the ethereal
quality of truth, via introspective exploration of the very Metaphysics of
Quality.  

Jef, honest pal, I don't think you will discover your inner Phaedrus in such
manner.  Pirsig himself would be spinning in his grave.  Wait, is Pirsig
still with us?  He would be coming up on 80 by now, but I never heard that
he had passed away.  Anyone here know him or where he is currently residing?

For that matter it occurred to me today that his bike may still be out there
somewhere.  It might be under a blanket in a barn somewhere in Montana.  It
would be worth a cool fortune.  Possibly more than Steinbeck's Rocinante.
