Let's say the pookah had a red shirt on.
Observer one of pookah not very observent or bad memory says
to his knowledge the shirt was blue.
Observer two says it had on a red shirt.
Other observers say they have no knowledge of it.
You can have correct knowledge, incorrect knowledge, or
no knowledge of something.
What does knowlege of pookah's shirt have to do with
agreement with others?
Everybody's knowledge is based on their observations but
agreement of observation doesn't seem related to knowledge
of the color of his shirt.

my knowledge = my opinion
consensus of opinions = consensus of opinion
but I still don't see how you go to
knowledge = consensus of opinion
