I disagree with the claim that all of our knowledge is based on the use of our senses. I mean senses are really how we acquire useful verifiable knowledge. This would be great to describe knowledge based on experience. To me it falls apart when you are trying to use it to explain math. Math is facts 2 plus 2 is 4 everywhere. I also discussed this briefly in my pervious post. Check it out.
I see what you mean, although 'facts' does not really bring out the difference. It is the fact that it is necessarily true that is the difference.
