[first I have to ask you next time you reply - delete parts
of the message you are not replying to.]

Certainly, you may not be aware of the name of the
thing that you are aware of - but you certainly know
it's color/size/sound/etc..
	Anyway, the argument started in the first place
because someone stated that you can be aware of something
but not know *anything* about it, or that knowledge and
awareness are completely seperate.
