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

Just a note to say goodbye to the great visionary that was Douglas Adams. Thank you, Douglas - for blessing us with your words, humour, and all-around genius. Your way of looking at the world was simple, yet you expressed what you saw with keen observations that possessed great depth and meaning. HHGTTG was truly a guide to Life, the Universe, and Everything. It is the best disguised "self-help series" I have ever read (not that I've read many, mind you). Godspeed, DNA, and I hope that some lucky parallel Universe is enjoying your presence as much as we did on this utterly insignificant blue-green planet.

In Mr. Adams' honour, I have inscribed the words "DON'T PANIC!" on my Palm Pilot. Since I do not have a black towel, I thought it was the next best-fitting thing to do.

I hope Doug's vision of Death was as lovely as Neil Gaiman's portrayal of her.

i think we all are,PG. DNA was one of a kind. i'm gonna dust off my copy of the BBC shows....and Python to spot him.

Hiya Festerpet,

Interesting name, by the way. You should post the explanation in the Guide if you haven't already!

Thanks for your reply to my little journal entry. It amazed me that somebody actually read it! I didn't know what to write in my "introduction space," so I thought I would state the obvious. Heh.

I had the opportunity to postpone my Marvin-like depression for a few hours when I met Terry Pratchett on Monday night. Not quite as brilliant as DNA in my humble opinion, but pretty darn close.

Anywho, welcome to the H2G2 community (in which I am a hermit !

Cheers,
Piriya
