is objective perception of color and
such. In this view there is the target
of perception (like the sugar content or ripeness of a
strawberry) there is the
very different physics our senses detect as they represent that,
and finally
there is our knowledge of such. All of
these obviously different physical things.</span></p>

<p>Sorry, I have absolutely no idea what you're saying. Many of your
sentences don't even make grammatical sense, and I can't get any
meaning from them at all. e.g. "<span
style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman",serif">You don’t perceive colorness
properties, you are directly aware of them</span>". You seem to
be saying that awareness of colour and perception of colour are
different things. I don't know about you, but I can't be aware of
something that I haven't perceived, and I can't perceive something
without being aware of it. The two words effectively mean the same
thing.<br>
