I had one today while reading a novel. The epiphany was the sudden understanding of story-telling and entertainment. I had been wondering why the book was captivating and engrossing. And then I knew why. The revelation is obvious but never articulated as how-to a tutorial.
Then I had an epiphany for the nature of intelligence.
Back in 1841 one of my kinsmen was a medical doctor at Tallahassee when a yellow fever epidemic came along. He did his duty, escaped death, and recorded all he knew about the disease. It was several years ahead of Pasteurs Germ Theory, and my relative couldn't fathom how yellow fever got from a mosquito to the human. The agent is a virus but none knew of germs. Intelligence is the means to create the connecting bridge from facts to results.
