Anywhere else, this would be a philosophical question. Here I'm sure some of you can speak from experience.

Given the chance to get a look at your future-- assuming that under the circumstances, that knowledge doesn't grant you the ability to change it-- would you want to know?

If you do know-- would you rather you didn't?

Nope. I don't think I could make things any worse than I tend to do without knowing the future.

Of course, in my personal experience, precognition tends to be fairly unreliable. But I get the feeling that's not what you're talking about.

Not quite. I don't believe in precognition, personally-- here, maybe, but not in what I would think of as the real world.

It's unusual, but possible, in my world. I much prefer other more useful abilities.

But in relation to knowing your future before being returned to it- I still like to know, just in case something does change and we have another chance.

Forewarned is forearmed? I'm not convinced it would work that way, where I'm from.
