I disagree that a story has to have an ending to be a good one, I think that if a person has an open mind that one can see many different possable endings to a story or for that matter a story can have many possable aspects to it so it can continue in a different direction. It's sort of like reading a good book, if you can see the many fasitied possability's of a paper; no matter who is writing or reading the paper, it can have many conclusions and it makes no difference if two or more people wheither or not they are athorities agree with what is written; as long as we realize that no matter what, no two people will always agree on what is correct
