Re: Newcomb Yet Again
That's cute - I really like throwing Willie in there.  But the very fact
that he's going to give you the same advice no matter what's in the boxes
means that his advice gives you no additional information about the 
contents of the boxes, and it seems only reasonable in this case to
proceed as before and choose only box B.  You can make this choice (fairly)
confident of keeping your head because you know that the same causal process
which ultimately resulted in your choice has also resulted in a million
dollars being placed in Box B by a friendly computer.
