Right... but then how do the Gettier exceptions fit into that not-so-original insight?



Example would be the above comment about "There is a cow in that field". It would be to then ask, did I see the cow move, eat, or do anything else that you would expect a cow to do - rather than just seeing the silhouette?

I generally think the point is that you oftentimes have beliefs about why something broke and that it is important to check your beliefs.
