Intuition defended

As an intuitive thinker (INTP actually), I was curious to read a discussion of the biological representation of intuition. Lars-Erik Bjorklund defended his thesis on the topic.

The article suggests that experience layers subconsciously to guide one's behavior and judgment in ways that are hard to trace. That's a reasonable summary of much of my stream of consciousness. I'm a little bit curious about how experts embed and retrieve tacit knowledge.
