[FRIAM] better simulating actual FriAM

[thompnickson2 at gmail.com]

I think the relation between cause and entailment goes something like this:

If cause means, event A is always followed by event B and B never occurs in
the absence of A (for instance)

Then the statement that A causes B, taken with the statement "A has
occurred", entails the occurrence of B.  

But boy, howdy, am I NOT a logician!

Thanks, that sounds right. Are we interested in similar relations like
entailment?
