Exactly. Nobody knows.

And the company has indicated nothing, by admission nor silence.

So people getting their hopes up . . . again . . . is unwise and unhealthy.

I heard Terry Waite speak at UConn in the early 90's, not long after his release in 1991 after 5 years as a hostage in Lebanon. One of the things that struck me (now almost three decades ago) was him talking about how he survived in isolation for years. He said that it was important to keep faith that you would be released, that you would survive. However, that the people who created artificial deadlines or goals (e.g. 'I'll be home for Christmas'), or believed the many promises, were the ones who did not make it.

An excerpt from a recent interview touches on this point:

"I was often told that I was to be released the next week and nothing happened. This happened so frequently that I said that I would only believe something when it actually took place. Last month many people were disappointed as the promised easing of restrictions on June 21 was delayed."

The simple fact is, humans do not like uncertainty. But we are faced with it all the time. So it is natural to look for indicators, try to put things into a schedule or a plan that we can follow. Try to divine the future. It just doesn't work most of the time.
