if I didn't choose to get out of bed because I could not get to bed, would I have posted to this topic at all?
I have only been through OAC Philosophy, but I believe the theory of parallel universes is quite relevant when it comes to free will and thus anyone who could see into the future would only be seeing one of the possible outcomes.

who can see into the future? Mystic Meg? Televangilists and their kin? Uri Geller!?
Predicting a future of a different reality that will not be experienced by us is precisely meaningless. If you are indeed to accept the anthropic multiverse principal (not a theory BTW) then predictions from an alternate "reality" are useless. In fact, one could argue that ALL predictions (guesses?) are perfectly precise, SOMEWHERE.
