Come on, Alberto, you *know* I can neither confirm nor deny that!
If I would say "no, I am not posting from the future", I might (or might
not) be lying. If I would say "yes, I am posting from the future", that
might very well change the past for the people who live in the future, and
create some very unpleasant paradoxes.
I am sure that you, as a timeline expert, will understand my dilemma.
