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

Hi Ho.


Effers has thrown in the hootoo towel and has asked me to contact you. She has spoken very highly of you to me and would very much like to stay in touch. If you are interested, Taff or cl zoomer or taliesen can pass along contact information which I would pass to Effers. Due to bad experiences in the past, she doesn't want to have hers posted publicly.

Or azahar.

Hi anhaga.

It's a beautiful failing to think highly of people upon so little evidence. It also risks terrible disappointment.

I wish her well, and would like to keep in touch.

Thank you so much for letting me know. You have been a true friend to her.

I've been trying to get in touch with az, via three email addresses, without response. I wonder whether it would be possible for you to ask az to pass on my email address to Effers?

I will try, but I fear you may have more ways to contact as than do I. I'm posting from my phone right now. I may wait until I get home.

I'd be most grateful. az is the only h2g2 person I've ever contacted by email, although we haven't corresponded for a long time so the addresses I have may be defunct.

Perhaps, if you are in touch with Effers, you might tell her that I am trying to reach her?

All the best for the New Year!

I've just sent az a message on facething.

I'll let Effers know.

Cheers!

Just to let you know that az has now responded (from her gmail account).

Many thanks again for your help.

Your post to the YouTube thread (Song Sung Blue) reminded me of an experience I had one summer afternoon in the mid-1970s.

I was at one of Sydney's least accessible nudist beaches, when a light rain began to fall. I was alone, although there were several other people scattered around the beach. It was getting late, and the unspoken consensus was that it was time to leave.

As I gathered my bits and pieces, a couple called out an invitation to go back to their place for a cup of tea. Having nothing better to do, I accepted, along with three or four others. No doubt, I had sex on my mind...

Back at the flat, we were made comfortable, given our choice of tea, and our host rose to put an album on the stereo. I didn't recognise the cover and was fascinated to know what kind of sound he thought appropriate for the occasion.

He played this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGFlACG6qvI

Naturally, I'm concerned about Effers' long absence. Do you know what's happened to her?

I can't help but think she's either been sectioned or, worse, that she's had an accident while riding her bike.

I've not heard from her in some time, although there might have been a hint of her activity on my blog the other day. She did suggest to me it might be a prolonged absence.

Thanks for that, anhaga.

Please let me know when you have some news.

Effers has posted to her journal.

Thank you, anhaga.

Very interesting

Seems to be Yupik and Sami imagery, stuff from the Eurasian circumpolar. What I'm used to is Inuit culture from Canada and Greenland. An interesting continuum.
