Default OT: Doglas Adams is dead!!!

Yes, it's true.

Just read it at the official Douglas Adams website and Comingsoon.net ... this is so sad!

The world just got a little less funny. Perhaps we should remember some of the really crazy stuff he came up with.

The first contact I had with Hitchhiker's Guide was the BBC television series rather than the book. I remember just flat losing it the first time I saw the Babel Fish bit on the show. When I read the book and later watched the series again, it wasn't so unexpected, but that first time, the idea of sticking a fish in your ear as their Version of the universal translator had me in hysterics.
