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

I wonder if the Engimatic(tm) ought to be recorded in the guide. Have you seen those "Technical Reference Manuals" for the Straship Enterprise that people flick furtively through in WH Smith's? Something like that. Just a user page, it would be a pointless submission.

With my brains, artistic flair, dashing looks and your time it'd be a winner, I'm sure.

Perhaps you could set it to work on the above post. I did preview it, honest, but something went 'astar'

What, this: http://www.douglasadams.com/cgi-bin/mboard/general/thread.cgi?82 thing? I particularly enjoy the way I wrote the explanation so badly. Not quite sure how it could be made into a user page...

"Fictional device used to correct abuses of the English language."

Would be a fairly enigmatic way to describe it, I suppose. I've proof read that sentence 5 times, so if it comes out wrong it's not my fault!

Ah yes, and my smoking jacket pun. Stoney ground (sigh)

Things all seemed so simple back then. Happy days, happy days.

Oh, since your sister and Bruce have hijacked the GA thread...

Still making steady progress with How The Mind Works, an excellent recommendation - thanks. I've just come upon the Neural Network, section which doesn't seem to have enough breaks for my interrupt ridden reading environment. I'll have to hope for a touch of insomnia.
