Scumbria,

Are you certain about that? ;^)

What is certainty? An expectation of guaranteed odds? A calculated gamble? Do you feel certain that the sun will rise tomorrow? However small the odds, there is actually a greater than zero chance that tonight a previously undiscovered, massive, dark planetoid will blast into the earth, blowing it to smithereens, and there will be, in fact, no sunrise tomorrow.

At a more metaphysical level, is "certainty" certain? Can one ever say "always" or "never". No, one can never say "never". And how dull life would certainly be if there was anything as certain as certainty. I'd never be happy in a world like that. The uncertainty in life is what makes it exciting and a challenge. It gives us hope and purpose -- to know that the future is not preordained, is uncertain.

Uncertainty? Embrace it; love it; revel in it. Use it to your advantage always. Never let it go.

As for the P4 in September, though, yes I'm pretty certain. <G>
