Wolfgang:

I don't think I made myself clear (yet again!). The ability may be verified by using data in the normal forms; but if Ingo Swann, for example, correctly describes a location he has never been to based only on map coordinates (as he is reported to have done in Puthoff's Stanford experiments) then he was knowing without any data about the location aside from the coordinates. Yet he correctly knew what was there. I meant that the knowing seemed to go way beyond the data set available tothe knower, beyond extrapolative or deductive devices.

The ability to know is something cognitive science (as much as I have seen of it, not a definitive lot) has only skirted around. IMHO.
