You know, not to get all technical about it, but the real danger of knowing too much about your future is that, by the very fact you know it’s going to happen, could potentially CHANGE said future, and render that tidbit of data null and void in the process.That is, of course, assuming that history is malleable and the Novikov self-consistency principle doesn’t apply. Until someone successfully achieves time travel, or at least a better understanding of time itself, it’s going to be hard to know for certain what WOULD happen.
