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

Welcome to h2g2 - you sound like just what we need - another grumpy old curmudgeon - and I can just imagine the "medical advice" you'd offer too - but be careful - we quite enjoy grumpy old curmudgeons here

My name is Feisor and I am an ACE (Assistant Community Editor) here at h2g2.

We ACEs are here to assist new researchers so if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

The "Italics" (they are the people who run this place - so-called because their names are displayed in bold italics - God Bless 'Em) have left a message for newcomers at

it's got a lot of the basic background and how-tos that you will need - a good place to start

Then you can take the H2G2 Tour at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A317459 to see how it all works

If some of the H2G2 terms leave you a little confused, there is a great page about it at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A632431 (thanks to Dastardly for this great page)

And finally, the editors of our own newspaper The H2G2 Post have made up a page of links - you can find it at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A616718 and then you can read The Post

Well - that should keep you busy for a while I am sure that you will love this community as much as we do There's lots of things to see, clubs to join and people to meet - please don't be shy - just jump right in - this is a friendly place. But be careful - it can become quite addictive - believe me I know



Enjoy!!
Have fun!!!
and above all DON'T PANIC!!!

Thanks for the links Feisor, you've made an old man who doesn't exist very happy.

Looking forward to talking to you and everyone else.

Squint.

Well you know where I am if I can help with anything

Hello Squint_see.
You looking forward to talking to me?

I'm particularly looking forward to talking to you, Galaxy Babe, even though I have no idea who you are or anything about you because I'm completely new here.

You seem very nice, though. Need any advice?
