Thanks for the recommendation. I agree that if we knew our future life would be far less exciting. <b>Qwaider:</b> Oh yeah ... that occurred to me after i wrote this post. I remember that movie was very full of holes. For example, the simulator kept on changing its prediction based on what is happening, so it doesn't fit my bill for a simulator that can account for everything :-) Jaraad: I’ve never heard of that series, I’ll check it out.

Currently, there is a TV series called Flashforward you can watch it at hulu.com. It has the same question if we know the future, are our actions a response of what we know about our future? I believe that nothing in this universe is random yet it is beyond our ability to predict it. Although, such simulator will never exist but I think it would be a disaster if we know our future.
