    Marcus, 

    Free from WHAT exactly?  What is having free will freedom FROM?  And what 
is Will that is not free.  Aren't we having an oxymoron problem?

    Anyone that says an ABM can display Free Will, running on what we 
conventionally call a serial computer, is certainly talking about a different 
concept.

        I agree. I doubt it would display free will, too. But it's an 
interesting question whether it would or not. It's an even more interesting 
question whether it would *look* like it exhibited free will, which is the 
question RussA asked.
