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

Don't Panic!
You're a researcher...and you are here!
Hello and welcome to h2g2!
We all have a great time here!
You sound like just the kind of person we need in the Guide...well you found us!
As you go round meeting people they will get to know you & what you are into...
Another good way to find like-minded people is to write a Guide Entry, then submit it to the Guide, and other Researchers will read it & comment on it. A great way to make new friends!
I am an Guardian Angel, a fellow Researcher who has unofficially volunteered to help and guide new Researchers if they need it.
Thank you for joining our online community and I am sure you are going to have a great time here.
Have fun joining in the forums, or create your own!
Please feel free to search for any subjects which interest you, and if you can't find any Guide Entries on something you know a lot about, please write one!
