…. " I believe the photo [From Robert Pirsig by way of Anthony McWatt]. we were given is wrong. … I do not know why Pirsig initialed it. My previous visit to locate his former office I was informed differently and on the south side. The photo we got was on the north side. The south facing side is more likely and much smaller which matches up better with ZMM. The smaller office was locked and I did not enter it. A Mr. Kirk if I remember correctly either now uses it as an office or is the fellow that showed me the room. That office provides views south and another window faces west. So Pirsig could more easily view the described mountain ranges from that smaller room. Also some rooms were class rooms and that may well be the room on the north in the photo. So where he taught is that room and his former office is on the south. That difference might explain the confusion of the 2 rooms.
