Zen Pencils by Gavin Aung Than for October 28, 2013
Transcript:
The world is a thing of utter inordinate complexity and richness and strangeness that is absolutely awesome. The idea that such complexity can arise not only out of such simplicity, but probably absolutely out of nothing... is the most fabulous extraordinary idea. And once you get some kind of inkling of how that might have happened. It's just wonderful. And the opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a universe....is time well spent as far as I am concerned. -Douglas Adams

But they never got the question right, it should have been, “What is the number of Lee Petty’s NASCAR racer?”

I had the opportunity to attend a an event with Douglas Adams, he told several great stories including how an airline captain kept a plane on the ground for several hours to wait for some snack cookies to be delivered to the plane. I still have my signed copy of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”.

The question was “What is the answer to to the meaning of life, the universe, and everything?” It has not been forgotten just set aside for more important things. Like Call of Duty Ghosts gaming.
