The point of this whole zebra exercise is, I think, to see what the meaning of the word "know" is. In the original posting,
rezoner suggested there is a cultural difference between what we can call Eastern and Western approaches. In the comments, I saw more versions. Because I have not studied philosophy for a long time (and before learning anything new here I would have first to forget what I was treated to back when), and because I felt like it, I, together with other, perhaps more enlightened but not less playful, LJ friends engaged in a reductio ad absurdum testing of possible borders of the meaning of "know".
And you know what?

Thus, the word "know" is closely related to the conscious realization of being aware of something.
