[Cz-philosophy] Free will v determinism

[Larry Sanger]

John and Mark,

Sorry I haven't replied on the list.  I'm ridiculously overextended.  :-)
Generally, I'm glad work is being done on the philosophy articles, period!

I'm going to get a bunch of new philosophy editors on board after the
PHILOSOP and PHILOS-L announcements of a few weeks ago...I just haven't had
the time to catch up with them.  But the hope then is that these people will
get to work on various philosophy articles.

Let's do have some philosophers show up at the Write-a-Thon this Wednesday!
Maybe I'll try to finish the "Philosophy" article...

--Larry
