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

Holy shit, you're right. Well, what's still needs to be worked on?

is it ready to go?

Dunno, since I want to do it as a university thingy.

If you are doing this as part of a University Entry, it shouldn't be in PR.

You need to apply to the h2g2 University: A339059

Your Subeditor will be the one who places your articles into PR, where others will put the final polish to them

Fine, I'll do it later, for now I'm about to do some D&D.

Hey Cosmic, have you applied for the Uni project yet?

Haven't been on, classes and stuff have been keeping me busy. I've also been fearing the backlog of stuff that has been accruing, keeping me away for longer in an infinite loop thingy. Fortunately, there's been a null pointer exception .

When you break out the infinite loop let us know Good luck with the classes and see you soon.

*poke*

Need some jumper cables?

If you're going to do it as a Uni project, can you remove it from PR for now?

As Cosmicdudeman seems to have elvised - not been seen since last November, perhaps we could take a decision to allow this to be picked alone? Other than that it should go back to his homepage.

My gut feeling is that the prospect of a Uni project on this subject will never materialise, so we should propose this as an EGE.

Thanks for inviting me over to this one Lanzababy It's amazing just what is out there in the cosmos when I take the time to shut up and listen for a change

It is an introduction, I haven't read all the peer review posts yet. However, it is a little American centric, a good start to the introductions of the origins, however there is more Shortened exhaust pipes, 'V' shaped electronically switched exhaust to get past emission and noise laws, I could go on

All this from a former weapons engineer Same principle, though slightly different order - Engines equal Suck, bang, blow - my engineering goes bang, blow away, suck the survivors into the resulting maelstrom

I would like to have seen a continuing article to reflect our international interest - ie. Santa Pod and perhaps the Hienburg ring in Germany, I'm not sure if they do pro-fuellers there as well?? Perhaps our German friends could enlighten me on that one.

Hi norti! Great to see you over here

This _is_ about American Muscle cars! How about you writing a short one about UK cars? Go on - you know you could, and we are here to help.



Lanzababy Scout.

When I have the time Yes it is 'American' muscle cars, but there was so much missed

I 'm sure I suggested a continuing article(part2) on world wide expansion of the sport to todays nitro pro-fuellers, my memory is very good on things like that

I really should write an edited guide about my own 'sport' the Long Distance Walkers Association and the rigours of the '100'. The aim: To complete on foot a defined route of 100 miles in 48 hours or less, with minimum ascent of 12,000ft. Starts every 2nd May Bank holiday in the UK, different part of the country every year (Scotland this year)at 1000 in the morning and you just keep going to the finish, of the course or the individual, no rest, no sleep. Just guts and determination

It would be a good counter from an article in the Telaegraph some years ago that decribed us as being on the "Lunatic fringe of walking groups" They were probably quite correct

Blimey. I once walked 30 miles in a day and nearly lost a knee. (I did lose a toenail.)

Gif

I think that's why God gave us the internal combustion engine

Yep, I do lose toenails, hallucinate (a symptom of over-whelming fatigue), and generally fall to bits. I've never given up yet

Here you are norti go and write! Shoo!

Challenge accepted I must think on this further

This has been in PR for nearly 2 1/2 years!

The author hasn't posted for nearly 6 months!!

Time for a move to flea market seems long overdue!

I agree, FM for this one
