- chug2k 16y agoAgreed. It's just another annoying contrarian headline. It's not what the article is saying at all.
- wladimir 16y agoI was about to say that. It's never possible to be sure that something will never happen. Forever is a mind-bogglingly long time.
- PakG1 16y agoTo be fair, the title was "May Never", not "Will Never".
- runevault 16y agoIn anything other than perhaps a human life, Never just feels too definitive. The may just makes it sound wishy washy.
- BerislavLopac 16y agoHehe, cue the obligatory Lord of the Rings quote: 'Never is too long a word even for me,' said Treebeard.
