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

I hate to rain on 2Legs' party, but don't we already have a President: Hypatia?

I never voted for her...

Yes we do - that's why 2legs claimed the title of queen for himself

Indeed he did.

But let's not get sidetracked - let's celebrate the fact that this honour is bringing us *yet more* visitors. I am delighted to let you know that visitors coming from the British Library are reading our entries as I type. Let's show them we really are a remarkable community, in case any would like to join us.

Put's out the welcome mat

Puts nibbles on the side tables.

Chills wine

Well said, Lanza

Who's pinched me Matt ?

YAY! Now that is just absolutely brilliant news. Well done to all.

and all round!

Well done, us! Well done, Volunteers! Hurray!

And hurrah and hurrumble for the extra visitors, and readers this may, and already seems to be bringing. Taking the edited (and non-edited), guide to an even wider audience, let us hope that on reading an article, or two, many will think, 'I can write stuff like this', and be urged to join us, and contribute to the project and expand the guide further..

Hmmm... spiceing up the post...

Just adding my and . Great news.

Does anyone else think the smiley should be ? Every time I use it I get it wrong. Thank bob I remember that perview is my fiend!

2Legs has written enough material in this thread alone for at least 20 quotes of the day. You're brilliant, 2Legs, that's all there is to it.

Anyway, this is a wonderful honor. Now that I know people from the British library are reading what it written here, I intend to resurrect the Blemnox Saga in all its magnificent kitschy glory.

Seems like I've not had a QOTW for ages. Maybe my quotable and memorable scribblings just arn't edgy enough... yeh... what this post needs is more cowbell...

I've had quite a few QOTDs in the last few months. Nevertheless, I think your most recent material is stellar, 2Legs. I really do.

I think it is my recent meditation experiments, they've taken me to new, for me at least, levels and realms of unreality and spuriousness. I've developed a kind of zen-meditation involving towel-folding.
Seriously...
It is so theraputic, taking a whole washing machine-full of freshly washed, and dried towels, and just folding them.

And then folding them again.

Plus with the folding, there is the whole ' 'towel stacking', and then lining them all up neat... Its kind of .. weird... very sort of... weird... in a kind of out of body way... really... peaceful, tranquil, and focusing at the same time

Yay! This really is great news. It's so terribly nice to know that others have recognised the work that we, collectively, put into this place. And that it's worth preserving it.

Well done everyone for making this place so brilliant!

I knew our talent would be recognised one day ~ we should have hidden it better.

congrats and pats on backs all round.

Is anyone logging the new researchers we get as a result of this accolade?

Life the Universe and Everything ?
It will be interesting to see which 'skin' they use.

Typical library users - over 13 years overdue.

Not really, it's been in constant demand but only just become available
