So, knowing

 Thinking about knowing is kinda' hard on account of what you are doing is thinking about thinking which clearly can be a confusing situation. But without mentioning , " what did he know, and when did he know it  ",   only need some good examples.

For most of my life, I  did not " know " where my cars keys where.  Now, of course, I had a list which included getting a spare key, which some how I never got to.  But guess what ??? I always did know where my keys where when I went for a drive, except for occasionally I would lock them in the car.  So, what does that mean ?  Most of the time I did not know where my keys where, which if anything I had, was one of those " most " important items, for me to know about.

So, obviously a pretty difficult subject which we can easily dismiss by saying, >> we just don't know <<.

Now, this is where the classification theorem can come in handy.  You see , I like to think that I know that the classification theorem proves what all the finite simple groups are, which is immediately a head scratcher, unless you know a good deal about finite simple group theory.  But if you do, you might agree with me.  At the end of the day we have a book or two, and of course we have the classification theorem itself in one form or another.  But, if I where to say, for example,  I have a proof of the classification theorem that was 10 pages long, there might be people out there, who could " prove ", that I was nuts.

Now, this is really not that much different from the " issues " related to the >>> " unified " field theory, which of course has produced a great deal of " head " scratching for some time now.  Obviously, it was of some   concern for Dr. Einstein and in fact, at some level for relativity or perhaps Relativity , can't be sure about that.

So where could this end?  Well, now, currently,  it has become of some concern for a verity of  reasons, , that we actually know something about knowing.  Hence, we now have a theory, Theory of Reality. which I suppose you could call tor, but that would make you think of Thor, and next, Thursday. 

The sad part is this has been proposed by someone who is both a physicist and a mathematician, and I suppose , just to keep things interesting, he probably will not really come out clearly for us to know if this theory is a math theory or a physics theory, which can be extremely difficult to sort out, which is quite important because he connects back a lot to Goidel's Proof, fyi, always a head scratcher.
