OK, everybody I know, (except me) has in their life times used the term "maybe NOT"...some people make a habit of using the term "maybE, maybe NOT"

Is it just me, or doesn't "maybe" already mean "maybe not"?
 
I think it depends on weather the person is a "glass is half full" or "glass is half empty" kind of person ya know?
 
Maybe not is inherent in maybe in the sense that maybe is a joining of the two words may and be. As in "It may very well be." Inherent in this statement is the implication that "it" may very well NOT be either. This reflects the uncertainty priciple and the very conditional state of the universe that we live in. Cool, ain't it?

Yes, but you didn't get the pleasing effect of seeing stuy_b's head explode. This happens sometimes when The Deeper Mysteries are explanined to early in the day. Mine blew up several times just last week.

yes, I didn't quite see that..
 
Yes, well, maybe this has been a lot of fun, maybe I should go out now, (maybe it's around 930 or so), maybe need to take some pictures, maybe get the canoe out and maybe paddle about Tahoe a wile. Maybe. Just Maybe. Good Lord, it's not even a word anymore, maybe.

Positive: glass is half full
Negative: glass is half empty
Engineer: glass is twice too big :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
