Really?!? Is knowledge really knowledge without understanding?
Say, if all of mankind suddently died - except for some few communities how have
been living in the same way since the stoneage with no contact to rest of the
world. Could they use the knowlegde in the data stores? Are we not also having
trouble deciffering knowledge from ancient civilisations?

I'd say that people (and our institutions like schools and universities) are
indeed necessary to 'carry' knowledge... And btw this also why knowledge
management systems so often fail.
