Very nice.  The New Yorker cartoon makes me think that there must be a T-shirt somewhere for epistemologists, featuring perhaps a portrait of Plato or Russell, over the legend "What part of KNOW don't you understand?"  Wait, let me check…aha:

Not a T-shirt, perhaps, but a journal article--
Brown, Deborah (2005).  What part of "know" don't you understand?  _The Monist_ 88:1.
