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

Hi there ll

I recently found your link in a conversation to that swedish sight concerend with the functioning of the brain. I tryed the test and was stunned by the accuracy and insightfulness of the result.

In fact, I'm thinking of using the text as my PS, and had two queries:
a) Do you reckon there'd be any copyright issues?
b) please can you give me the link again (i'm afraid I forgot the conversation the orig. link was in.)

Thanks alot

Wrong way round but here we go
re (b) I'll e-mail somebody to try and get that address
re (a) I've absolutely no idea

Hello!

Sorry, I’m in a somewhat buoyant mood today for no apparent reason, and I felt like coming over to see how you are.

I was wondering if you could do me a favour and cast a critical eye over these two poems I attempted to write (well, I succeeded in writing them, I’m still attempting to make them at least slightly ‘readable’, is that a word?...)

Oh, and btw, I was looking over my old conversations (I do hope Ig is ok ), and I took that belief-o-matic test you mentioned ages ago. Apparently I’m most suited to more modern religions (Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (100%), Liberal Quakers (92%), Reform Judaism (85%)) Which was nice to know.

Sorry! Forgot the link for the poems!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/F3068353?thread=2804312&latest=1 Thanks bb

I'm on the hunt. For your poems!

The site you linked me to only gives real names, and I don't know which one is you! (although I have my suspicions ).

So just asking for a clue, are you also attatached to the land of our fathers?

Well how did you guess Blub? It was indeed a long time ago. First poem concerns a lighthouse in Eire.

The only bit of Welsh I remember nowadays is:
Braint y Cymro
yw cael ei eni a Chan
yn ei Galon a Cherdd yn ei Enaid,
ynhytrachna Golud Bydol (or something like that)

and that's because it's written down!

I read those poems, made a guess at which one was you, and one of the poems mentioned Wales, and its a welsh sounding name!

I don't speak any Welsh, born and bred in Yorkshire (strong in arm, thick in 'ead ), but come from a welsh family, and go watch the rugby sometimes.

to look for the rest of the poems!

That Welsh bit says:
To be born Welsh is to be born privilegeed,
not with a silver spoon in your mouth
but music in your blood
and poetry in your soul (anon)

You find it written on seaside p'cards etc. these days.
