Sorry, but we've got a *major* misunderstnading brewing here that I feel
morally compelled to clear up.  The song folks are referring to is almost
certianly "Free Will" by Rush, not Yes (both truly wonderful groups, of
course, but Yes cannot compare with Rush in the thoughtfulness/intelligence
(that word again!) of their lyrics).  Anyway, the song is about choosing
mental models by which to interpret the cosmos (yeah, that's the ticket).
