Wow I hadn't heard that one before

ShaggE 01/19/2008 08:20 am

Discovered Douglas Adams, eh?

evilguy12 01/19/2008 10:59 am

Yes, but what's the ultimate question? Even more importantly what is God's final message to creation!?

We apologize for the inconvenience.

t_a_o 01/20/2008 11:31 am

Hmm, never knew I would become the meaning of everything, when I turned 42!
Am I supposed to do something special now?

Dedlok 01/20/2008 11:37 am

The badge text for the 42 month Veteran Reward for City of Heroes/City of Villains :D

Also, type "what is the answer to life the universe and everything" in Google. :D

No i didn't get it from Douglas Adams, its because my brain is full of enough worthless triva to give power to NYC for a full week

you didn't get it from adams? interesting. might this have become common knowledge? already?
btw, 42 is not the meaning of life, the universe and everything else, but the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything else..or something. i know, it's only a small difference, but an important one, I think.

Kaldire 01/22/2008 02:59 am

I loved those books


42 is the answer to the ultimate question... It was given to the beings we knew as mice because they pushed the issue with Deep Thought
It was to busy watchin the Television(in the movie) so it built another computer to calculate the question.. this was the planet earth.. or rather earth mark II
Course they blew it up for the highway...


if you want to know the real reason adams posted it on his fan site ages ago.. I think its still in wiki

WHY 42!!!
"The answer to this is very simple. It was a joke. It had to be a number, an ordinary, smallish number, and I chose that one. Binary representations, base thirteen, Tibetan monks are all complete nonsense. I sat at my desk, stared into the garden and thought '42 will do.' I typed it out. End of story."

No offence but what was the point of this thread? If you didn't get it from Adams then were did you get it from? as Douglas Adams is the guy who thought it up in the first place.

what is the answer to life the universe and everything = a worthless number invented by a mortal man... LOL!!

LuigiHann 01/22/2008 02:14 pm

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a great book. You should read it, when you get a chance.

Kaldire 01/22/2008 03:21 pm

I love the first 3 books.. towards the end.. it was just not the same.. for obvious reasons.
