Hey, Charlie, I'm knocking myself out doing some research for you to solve a mystery and I find you over here. Get your buns over to Beltane and see if what I found answers your question!

Do you really want an explanation? If so, fasten your seat belt, LOL!

I said "if asked": The crux of the theory outlined in "The Critique of Pure Reason" is that the raw material provided by the things- in- themselves must be turned by the mind into a unified flow of experience, and that in the process the material is given formal shape according to the pre- given forms of consciousness: quantity, quality, modality, relation. Among other things, this means that there is an unbroken series of connections in the phenomenal world, and therefore that objects must appear in causal succession, whatever the truth may be about the things- in- themselves. Thus, the phenomenal world is amenable to scientific treatment........This is called the "synthetic unity of apperception", because the material is synthesized in the imagination into a unified experience for a self- conscious entity.......
