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

Welcome to h2g2, I am an ACE one of the volunteers who welcomes new researchers.

Every conversation you join in (or start) on h2g2 will be recorded on your page. You may continue with these conversations as long as you wish, or you may "unsubscribe" at any time.

Every time someone posts to a thread you have posted in (or a page you have subscribed to), the thread will be refreshed on your page.

It is a little strange at first and takes a bit of getting used to, but once you have the bug, you won't want to leave!

Have fun, Read lots and Don't Panic

Mel

Thank you Mel.... for your kind welcome...
but haven't you forgotten to bring some light? Never eaten a card before... tasty, though.

I don't need light, I am an ACE we walk unafeared into many a new researchers unknown territory!
Mel

bad mistake... always carry a light source... (there surely is a guide entry about Zork in here somewhere )... but I'll let that blinking fishie of yours count, I guess, otherwise I'll get lonely ...

I had a in the last post and I always have my mini maglight in my handbag in RL (real life) if that counts!

Mel

It sure does, Mel, I'll just wait for a stray cockroach without a handbag to come in here... but please do me the favour not to use the maglight in here, I have to equip this place with a cupboard to hide in first . You see, Grues are frightened by light... makes socializing as bit difficult, it does...

Yes I can imagine, are there any other Grues around here?

Mel

I found 7, all are hidden or not yet activated ... not very social, we seem to be... I guess I better find a black box to carry around and hide inside, so I can visit other places (apart from eavesdropping through the sewers, I mean ). A question though: is it terrible impolite to join in conversations where you know nobody at all? If they aren't terribly private, of course? I might be gruesome, but I wouldn't like to be impolite... or brash... thanks gruefully...

Join in conversations any where, feel free to visit my space and join in some of mine

People are really friendly and love having new people to talk to!

Mel

thanks for the invitation Mel, I'll grab my black box an be right over Phew, I just found an old aquaitance in here, but sadly he seems to have left... to late...

Who? Someone from RL?

Mel

no, truly and always only virtual... TV's Frink, or his ghost now only...
I fond a Café ... it's behaving strangely, but as long as nobody rips that blackbox off ...

Ahhh right then!
