I have had several dreams about the future. In general, the dreams do not end up matching the future. I have the feeling that these dreams are warnings about how the future could turn out. How can we distinguish between imagining the future and actually seeing it? If we do in fact have views of the future, is it possible for those views to change the future or cause an alternative version of the future to come into existence? --Tanner 20:51, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
