Hi George,
There's a point I raised a few months back that I believe helps explain all the paradoxes surrounding knowledge and KM. Namely, knowledge can only exist in the present moment.

When you take that as a rule or coda, it becomes very easly to explain everything else surrounding KM.

The fact is that all of us only perceive knowledge from our own personal vantage point, and we can only do so in the present moment. This sounds like an incredibly obvious statement but it's necessary to explain the nature of paradox.

In the present moment, or rather THE present moment resolves all paradox. As individuals we experience tacit and explicit knowledge simultaneously as we think and are exposed to ideas. By the same token, as a group we measure intellect and intellectual capital simultaneously. How is something I'm still exploring.
