But that question really made me draw a blank because I'm really good at things that pertain to the concrete, but the future isn't concrete. This may have not been the case with the person you were questioning, I'm just telling you my experience with that particular question.

I'm probably a little scientific so I tend to deal with things with direct answers, and that one ... I did not have one.
