Absolutely; however, can you give me any statements about reality which are not, in essence, statements about your expectations? And exactly what are your perceptions if they are not a facet of your expectations? What you have to understand is that understanding itself constitutes having expectations consistent with what you think you know. Please, what else is there? Or, more to the point, what else can there be which you can defend?
