Movie... watched. Book(s)... read (reason I watched the movie) BBC series... watched (reason I read the books) Radio play? Hmmm... new to me.

Shouldn't that be "All Visual Studio Users == All Visual Studio Users" ? Hey, is this the code review forum?

Yep, I'm on :) with all the others that use it too. But seriously, I think there are still alot of people using Borland C++, or some other editor.

Two radio series actually, then a book series, then an LP (remember them), then a TV show, and eventually the movie

They speak of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams. The reference is to the question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. The answer is 42, but we don't know what the question is.:confused:

That is because the professor misheard the quotation. It was an infinite number of monkeys (as Arthur finds out just after he and Ford are picked up by the Heart of Gold).
