I found them in the article here: https://www.iep.utm.edu/foreknow/ You might find that interesting regardless. I believe the Lewis quote was from Mere Christianity, but I'm not sure. It was aimed to show how God's foreknowledge is compatible with free will, but this led me to another idea which became the OP.

I skimmed through it all a short while ago. Interesting article. Since I have all the time in the world now, what with not on any project at work lately, I'm going to now read this very thoroughly and see if I have something to object to their eventual solution.
