Well, it's the one time (and only time) that I have really enjoyed (and gotten) British humor ala Monty-Python- style. Of course, I read HHGTG after playing the Infocom game, which I thought was one of Infocom's best, although many others thought it was unfair. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infocom (But that is another story -- another Internet venue I have been involved with over the years.) The babble-fish puzzle was great (and funny).
