At least you've invested some thought in the issue. That's more than
many others do. I think that when the discussion comes up, the terms
need to be clearly defined. It can be asserted that 'good' has no
meaning if there isn't 'evil.' The one is defined in some part by the
other. I wish I had finished G. E. Moore's "Principia Ethica." I had
started it last winter, and I put it down in the middle of his
defining "good." Maybe I'll be able to finish it when I retire, if I
ever get that far :)
I'll save you the trouble.
"Good" is BBQ baby back ribs.

Eh...
"Good" - non-diseased raw cherrystone clams on the half shell but sadly
not worth risking one's health over these days.
"Almost" as good - cherrystone clam steamers with melted butter and
salty clam broth.
"Very good" - steamed two pound Maine lobster.
"Very good" - real deal Marseille Bouillabaisse
"Good" - but a fading memory, terrific barbecue from Arthur Bryant's
Barbecue in Kansas City, *especially* when watching Charley Finley's
K.C. Athletics play a few blocks away in the old municipal stadium. The
K.C. Star's sports team at the game almost always sent a copy boy over
the Bryant's during the fifth inning to bring back a huge order for
everyone in the press box. If it was a slow news night, I could almost
always convince the night city editor to send me to the game to write a
crowd color story.
