Compare the case of someone who survives an atomic blast but doesn't know what hit him/her
with someone who witnesses the event.
The former knows what it feels like to be bombed but not that they were bombed; the witness
knows that the person was bombed but doesn't know what it feels like.
Both are real knowledge but of different things.
