I presume one of these was written posthumously because he only wrote an increasingly inaccurately named trilogy of 5 books while he was alive.

The first one. On the Heart of Gold just after engaging the Infinite Improbability Drive without any safe guards. The petunias think "Oh, no! Not again!"

A line of USB drives sold by Sony Electronics Inc. installs files in a hidden folder that can be accessed and used by hackers, a Finnish security company charged today, raising the specter of a replay of the fiasco that hit Sony's music arm two years ago when researchers discovered that its copy protection software used rootkit-like technologies.[^] Petunias* - that's all I can say! * And a 5 for the first person to get the reference.
