NA, I gather you have not read the second part of the HHGTTG series, "The Restaurant At The End Of The Universe"?

That ark - the "B-Ark" was on it's way from a planet called Golgafrincham with one useless third of their population (though there were only fifteen million people on that ship - kinda makes you wonder doesn't it) and set to crash-land on a planet somewhere.

They eventually did.

They crash landed in Africa about two million years ago and went on to become the major life form on this bloody planet.

Wouldn't that mess up us, the supercomputer?

The African proto-human natives were dying out at the time. The Golgafrinchans weren't part of the supercomputer, but I believe that over time we became a part of the computation, or at least partially. This is evidenced by Arthur Dent's creating part of the Question on the planet with self-made Scrabble tiles he was using to try to teach the natives language. Also, before Arthur and Ford got stuck on the Ark, Marvin said he saw the Question printed in Arthur's brainwave pattern.

Read TRATEOTU, it's explained in detail there - right down to the Captain's wishing they found a soap mine.

Erm..... Infinite Improbability Drive, perhaps? I mean, it COULD happen..... the chances are simply astronomically tiny. But it COULD happen.

Over here, if she done that, she would of been fined for being distracted at the wheel, which I'd agree with

And they would be perfectly in the right...If most food only made you a little fat if lot's of it were eaten.

A society is run on general expectations.
