Dilbert sits at his desk. Dogbert asks, "Do you think the chemistry
of the brain controls what people do?" Dilbert replies, "Of course."
Dogbert asks, "Then how can we blame people for their actions?"
Dilbert replies, "Because people have free will to do as they choose."
Dogbert asks, "Are you saying that 'free will' is not part of the
brain?" Dilbert replies, "Of course it is, but it's the part of the
brain that's out there just being kind of free." Dogbert says, "So,
you're saying the 'free will' part of the brain is exempt from the
natural laws of physics." Dilbert answers, "Obviously, otherwise we
couldn't blame people for anything they do." Dogbert asks, "Do you
think the 'free will' part of the brain is attached or does it just
float nearby?" Dilbert replies, "Shut up."
