I'm not Max More, but I've been known to play him on TV...

I read ZMM many years ago, so my memories are quite dusty. I do 
recall that, although I quite enjoyed it, it didn't excite me at all 
philosophically. I vaguely recall Pirsig being fascinated with Plato, 
whose thinking I have never found remotely appealing. The 
specifically extropic aspects of the book escape me (unless "quality" 
can be construed as extropy), but I'd be happy to be (re-)enlightened 
on this point.
