I would argue that Goldman has the right stance: Knowledge is justified if it is both true and the justification is CAUSALLY connected with this true belief.

Has nobody else noticed how often Millican says things are 'tempting'?

No talk of Nozick's tracking theory of knowledge? That's no fun.

Philosophy is about words and their meanings. There is some confusion between the word "knowledge" and the word "information." Information is the passive side human understanding...you could say information alone is nearly useless. Knowledge, on the other hand, is information that knows how to be applied or utilized to interact with our perceptual beliefs. Honestly, probability isn't the best topic in philosophy; truth and justice are by far more practical topics.
