                Salmon is party a bio about Douglas, mostly told through his own words in the form of interviews and articles. The second part is an unfinished story. I've read the first part, which I thought was pretty great as I really didn't know much about Douglas. I haven't gotten to the second part yet. --Mike-- "So where does that leave us?

                          Douglas Adams swore by his Macs. He also swore at them frequently, but still, he loved them. Anyone else read Salmon of Doubt?
