As for common sense, I think it is important to remember that it has two 
meanings:

1. Native good judgment; sound ordinary sense.
2. The set of general unexamined assumptions as distinguished
from specially acquired concepts: Common sense holds that
heavier bodies fall faster than lighter ones.
-- The American Heritage Dictionary

George Lakoff refers to # 2 as "Folk Theories".
