Michael Tye on Knowledge - Dictionary of Arguments

Chalmers I 141
Knowledge/Color Researcher Mary/Frank Jackson/Qualia/TyeVsJackson/Tye/Chalmers: (Tye 1986): There is a difference in the intensionality between "This fluid is water" and "This fluid is H2O". In a way, both sentences express the same fact, but one sentence can be known without the other being known.
Chalmers: these gaps arise because of the difference between primary and secondary intension (localized or non-localized in the actual or in a possible world).
