Another random crop-up of the magic number, which cropped up whilst I was rewriting the intro for the Utopia Cafebar, h2g2 A465842
"Only 42 years after the printing press was invented, Thomas More published 'Utopia,' a fanciful tale describing his vision of a perfect world."
Spooky eh? I only found that out by Subtracting 1474 (caxton prints book) from 1516 (More's Utopia published). Quite a surprise when the answer pops up like that.
(Although I may have been spending too much time here lately, having finally fixed my PC)
