Death Of Douglas Adamss

Heard the news on teletext yesterday that Douglas Adams had died suddenly of a heart attack in the US. Sad, cause the guy was only 49.
Reading all the messages of condolence around the guide and in the BBC's 'Talking Point' forum. I sent a message to the forum but don't know whether the BBC will post it.
Been thinking recently about 'The Omega Theory' of life-after-death whereby intelligent beings in the far future harness the entire universe to act as a giant computer. They then use this computer to perform a giant simulation of the entire history of the universe and inside this simulation is a simulation of everyone who has ever lived-so everyone who ever lives gets resurrected!
It occurs to me that 'The Restraunt At The End Of The Universe' would be the ideal setting for resurrecting everyone. See you there Douglas!
