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

Hi, Adele and welcome to H2G2, one of the best places to be on this planet and indeed on any other, or indeed, for that matter, any other in any other parallel universe, or indeed, any other universe beside that one.

My name is Dr. Deckchair Funderlik, but don't worry, I'm not a doctor . I am an ACE for this place, that is: Assistant Community Editor. I'm basically here to help you. H2G2 is a big big place. Someone was sent off to mark the boundaries last year, but we haven't heard back from them yet. So if you're feeling somewhat overwhelmed, and I know I was when I started out, then here are a few places to check out:

If you are looking for more general information about the guide then go to the <./> welcome page</.>. . Its a good place to start.

When you are feeling creative, visit the <./> GuideML-Clinic</.>. This page will show you how turn your guide entries into the sistine chapel-type of entries they will doubt deserve to be.

If you are wondering how to make the smiley pictures like then click on any smiley. Simple, eh?

And, naturally, don't panic. No really, don't. Click on 'front page' and then click "Don't Panic" instead. It will take you to some nice big friendly help pages. Also, you might want to try this page by Rocket Man: A725500, as it is packed with loads of useful information.

So - that's it really - wander about, don't be afraid to ask questions, write a few entries when you feel like it, jump into the many conversations going on here and have many a , a , a and a on the way.

Never thought much of Brahms myself. That cigar was just a gimmick.

Feel free to reply to me with any questions you may have. If you don't have a question, then feel free to reply with a definitive assertion.

Thanks for the welcome! I appreciate you dropping by, and I expect to have lots of fun here!
