h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I am looking for the bibliography. It doesn't seem present. Solid work. Without the bibliography though, I am afraid a "b" is the most I scrible with my cold dead hand.

Good work nonetheless.

All my own work I'm afraid[1]. The dictionary definition was mangled for copyright reasons[2]. Haddock.

[1] Not afraid as in scared, but the other kind.
[2] Even though it was from 1984.

I didn't know we were being graded on this! But then I never expect the Spanish Inquisition [1]. ''NObody expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise! [2]''

1. Dramatic chord
2. 16 ton weight

For a hilarious (ab)use of footnotes, have a look at "The 3rd Policeman" by Flann O'Brien [1]. And I do recommend this book not only for this reason.

[1] Irish novelist (1911- 66).

And for an example of endnotes, see the book _But What of Earth_ [1], in which every single one of the over one hundred footnotes is at the end of the book. [2]

[1] By Piers Anthony [3]
[2] Of course, this is for the best, given that some of the footnotes are pages long.
[3] The newer edition, of course.

Some years ago, I read a hilarious work called "A Garland of Ibids for Van Wyck Brooks[1]", by Frank Saltonstall Sullivan. It purported to be a review of Brooks' "The Flowering of New England", but turned into a hilarious diatribe on footnotes. I'd copy it, but I believe it's still under copyright[2].

[1] Or "A Garland of Ibids".
[2] In the US, life of the author plus 50 years; the Berne Convention sets different rules.
