  Why is the universe comprehensible? How is it that we can come to know its
regularities well-enough to exploit them for our own gain? In this essay I
argue that the nature of our comprehension lies in the mutually agreed upon
methodology we use to attain it and on the basic stability of the universe. But
I also argue that the very act of comprehension itself places constraints on
what we can comprehend by forcing us to establish a context for our knowledge.
In this way the universe has managed to conspire to make itself objectively
comprehensible to subjective observers.
