Norbert Wurzel ah, by the way: on the very day of my 42nd birthday (now 2 years years ago) I ran (and finished!) my first marathon (42 kilometers). That was fun. Thank you Douglas for getting me this through.

Norbert Wurzel I gave my son the name "Leovinus" (actually "Emil Leovinus") after the ingenious architect from "Starship Titanic". Is there anyone here who gave his/her child the name because of a fictional character by DNA?

Matthew Krevat The day after Halloween this year, I turn 42. Planning a Douglas Adams themed costume party (Halloween is a Saturday, conveniently enough) to celebrate, with Fairy Cake at midnight.

A round of Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters, please!

Matthew at 4:07pm June 24

Mrs. Gregory, if you can make the trip, you are so very welcome to join in the fun.

Jacqui at 4:12pm June 24

Well, thank you kindly, Mr. Krevat!

(Assuming, of course, that the planet's not demolished to make way for an interstellar byway before then...)

There is one flaw, Glenn. Marvin calculated the square root of -1 "in a moment of boredom".
1. A moment being only a brief/short period of time.
2. The program to postulate the question was to have taken millions of years.
3. Marvin could have been working on the question and gotten bored and just happened to solve the square root of -1.
4. Marvin did, in the end, come up with the answer and I'm sure it was pathetic. ... Read More

The rest of the theory makes perfect sense. One part that was left out was that Marvin had lived through countless millions of years and through the complexities of time travel the moment of the Earth's destruction could have occurred at any random point of time.

Cruentos at 12:09pm July 6

But the square root of -1 isn't 42?

Mhairi I'm just rereading H2G2 for the first time in years - still absolutely brilliant. I'm glad he wasn't around to see what an arse they made of the movie though! The script may well have been mostly his but the casting and costumes effects were so dissapointing - why hide Zaphods head and make Marvin all round!

Norman Woolsey Adams is as good as writers get. he knows how to invoke every human emotion through his stories, most importantly humor. and who is this god person anyway?

Douglas Adams discussed 42 on the Douglas Adams discussion board.

Stefán Hjalti Garðarsson I have a theory about what 42 really means, it´s a small mistake of Deep Thought, in stead of for-tea-two it is sopposed to be tea-for-two, and that´s the meaning of life the universe and everything, just two organisms having a cup of tea together?

Owen Workman When Marvin died, did anybody else feel as sad and manically depressed as he is (or was)?

June 17 at 7:59pm · Report

Ash at 11:19pm June 17

I first heard Marvin 'die' on the radio series, which made it doubly depressing - Stephen Moore's articulation of Marvin's last words (after having seen God's final message): "I think I feel good about that...goodbye Arthur..." made my heart sink.

What was funny about it was that the scene was constantly alluded to as 'the good bit with Marvin in ... Read Moreit' in the previous episodes. Even funnier was Arthur's response "miserable git...I'll miss him." But all in all, no, I certainly didn't feel as maniacally depressed as Marvin...his death was saddening, but I don't think it's even possible to be as miserable as Marvin!!

Ash at 11:29pm June 23

With you all the way mate, while Marvin WAS the most miserable mound of metal in the multiverse, he was definitely the most awesome one at that

Hello!

Patrick Jean I currently AM 42. It's provided no clarity on the meaning of life, though.
