Craig,

They reacted to "something", implying awareness. Read it again.

The inventor of the wheel was...I can't name him - I'm unaware of the name.

2+2=4 is a human concept. Time is a human concept. Awareness is a concept.
Intestinal parasites are not a concept.

> we were aware of x-rays. That is why we made detectors.

No, as the wikipedia article & Ham pointed out, it was the other way around.
The detectors reacted first to something unknown to us (hence, the term
"X"-rays.)  We later discovered what it was that affected the detectors.

> You, of course, cannot name something you are unaware of...

I'm unaware of who invented the wheel, but I've named him "Urgg".

"Intestinal parasites" is a human concept, but it does not follow they only
reside in humans.  You need a different argument to establish your
conclusion.
