Thanks, Grand Nudger. And yeah, I agree. I'd even bet people in the past, or even the founding fathers of the United States did not know as much about free will as much as people nowadays too, though maybe the founding fathers part I said was perhaps a bit of an exaggeration?

Ah, gotcha. Then again, I know I was missing something on the concepts part.
