The current discussion threads of free will on FFL began with tartbrain's post of a portion of a blog article by Sam Harris. Harris has added an additional post on his blog as the response to what he wrote was somewhat intense. He wrote:
'My last post on free will elicited a very heated response. Many readers sent emails questioning my sanity, and several asked to be permanently removed from my mailing list.

' The additional material he wrote in defense of his position may be found at: http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/free-will-why-you-still-dont-have-it/ <http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/free-will-why-you-still-dont-have-it\ /> This message has been brought to you by unconscious brain activity that has just surfaced as conscious thought and action.
