Browse the Edited Guide at C889. The Edited Guide is for non-fiction entries, which must fit into the Writing-Guidelines. That isn't to say they're boring though. There's a lot of humor in them and many of the entries are very interesting. Newer entries can be found on the <./>FrontPage</.> and at the <./>month</.> page.

Lastly, remember that the most important thing is to enjoy yourself.

I didnt have the time to study everything, but I will!

the reason I decided to go to h2g2 (again) was the book I'm reading right now (salom of doubt).
So, if I do something wrong, or my english s'getting to swiss please remind me!

I can understand fine

How're you liking the Salmon of Doubt?

First I was a little disapointed, becauce I somehow remember it to be a novel ( I boughth the book in english when it was published, started to read but didnt really read much ) but now I like it very much or in a way more than the stuff I knew from D.A. (which is basicly all his h2g ) because its more personal but still very funny. I'm looking forward to read it soon on my way back home in the "Tram" (a kind of train)

Well, in the back, there's the opening to a novel meant to be called "The Salmon of Doubt" I think Maybe that's where the confusion comes from.
