First I wanted to something else this week, but when I saved the file I realized that I had arrived at number 42. And considering that there is just one number 42 I had to do a strip about "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". I wasn't sure if I should explain the references in the annotation, those who know about it will most probably understand at least some. But I think I'll give hints about the ideas I wanted to include (highlight the text to read): - Construction of a bypass - Base 13 - Hitchhiker, guide - 6 x 9 - Imprecise question - Question actually is: How many roads must a man walk down? - Don't Panic - Deep Thought - Answer: 42 (6 by 9 in base 13) - Towel is one of the most useful things - Mice (had an important role->find the question) - Depressive Marvin - Base 13 again - 5/25 Towel Day - House destroyed - 5 x 25 in base 13 = 5 x 31 in base 10 = 155 in base 10 - World build to find question->only about questions, not answers |
