Well, do you know that you know that you know? Even if the answer is yes
after just a few more iteration the answer will certainly be no because you
won't be able to follow even what the question means. And as a practical
matter at least 99% of the time you don't know that you know, you just
know. Most of the time it would be counterproductive anyway, if you were
fully aware of how you know that you know how to walk and chew gum at the
same time you'd fall flat on your face.
