Interesting. It seems though it isn't knowledge that is core to your discussion but our 'knowing' - the human experience.  What makes some things 'compiled' knowledge (in our experience, like riding a bike) and some things expressible knowledge (which we can teach, like nuclear physics)?  Is it a physiological problem between muscle memory, the spinal cord, and the thing we call the brain?

Shameless plug: I have started a academically-oriented blog. I suspect my most recent post, on 'The Myth of Knowledge', is relevant to many of the discussions that I have been part of on this list, and will be of interest to at least a few people here.

I now return you to your regularly scheduled posts (and second the point that the 'ultimate L' article was very cool).
