Apologies that this makes me saying "join me next time for the LiA episode" in the last ep a lie, I just needed a bit more time for it and wanted to talk about this as well.

Question: did the people who sent the B Arc die from ear infections due to unsanitary telephones in the radio show, or was that added for the book?

Wait a minute, so in the grand scheme of the Universe the Earth and its inhabitants is absolutely meaningless . And the Earth was designed to calculate the Ultimate Question to the Meaning of Life. So the Meaning of Life is that there is no meaning and nothing matters?

A bit Nihilistic.

Yeah the whole planet got wiped out in both versions. I wanted to leave some jokes unspoiled.

I'll be viewing every bit of your upcoming Hitchhiker's Guide content immediately after I read the book and see the film. The book's next up on my list after I finally get through A Fire Upon the Deep. Keep up your great work!

Quick little bit of info you may be able to use (or have fun with): people have been trying to figure out the actual meaning of 42 for awhile. Mr. Adams more or less admitted he made it up, but people who knew him still question him doing anything random without a reason. One of the more recent theories I saw that seems to have a bit more merit than most is that 42 relates to ASCII programming (which allegedly Adams knew and used). Basically, in ASCII, 42 denotes an asterisk, which is ASCII code for "anything" or "anything you want it to be." So the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything could be seen as "anything you want it to be." :)

For more info on that 42 theory, this page seems to be a good place to start (I originally stumbled across it from a friend's Facebook post a month or so ago): <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/FanTheories/comments/24uio5/the_truth_behind_42_being_the_meaning_of_life_the/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.reddit.com/r/FanTheories/comments/24uio5/the_truth_behind_42_being_the_meaning_of_life_the/</a>

nit: the ASCII code just represents the character '*', however in Regular Expressions, that character indicates a wildcard, meaning it can match any string. I think that is what the theory was saying. That would be a clever play on meaning if it is true, involving multiple indirections.
