:: If you cannot observe what I was doing yesterday, how can you observe what I was wearing yesterday? Talking about observing changing fashion. [[User:Order|Order]] 08:09, 29 November 2007 (EST)

::: I (in theory) ''did'' observe what you were wearing yesterday. I observed it yesterday. That's why I said that I observe them ''whilst they are happening''. But nobody was around to observe scales evolving into feathers. [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 08:22, 29 November 2007 (EST)

::::What you observed yesterday, happened yesterday, and this experience is not in the present anymore. You refer to memories of the past. You might trust them they are your memories. But what happens if your eyewitness is another person that you may or may not trust? Do you have an eyewitness for him witnessing what he says he saw. Of do you try to get him to tell you some details that you can check now in the ~~presence~~, to figure out if his story holds water. And what is there was no eyewitness. Like in the fridge example. Do you then give up apriori to explain what happened? [[User:Order|Order]] 09:07, 29 November 2007 (EST)
