Just a few great Douglas Adams links

In the beginning the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

There is a theory which states that if anybody ever discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Okay, on with some links. First, his page: http://www.douglasadams.com/

Artificial god speech to Biota: http://www.biota.org/people/douglasadams/

His "Community" Page that the BBC now owns: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2

Hyperland: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7190175107515525470

Let me know if there are any particularly appropriate links that I should post. And of course, feel free to discuss his works of fiction as well!

Comment by Mark Cunningham on December 26, 2010 at 12:45pm: Thanks for the heads up Richard, I'll have to try and track it down

Comment by Larian LeQuella on December 25, 2010 at 3:18pm: Thank you Richard. Who knows, maybe BBC America will try it, although it would be difficult to get the average American audience to "get it".

Comment by Richard Healy on December 25, 2010 at 2:45pm: BBC recently broadcast a pilot of Dirk Gently's Hollistic Detective Agency.

Most of the characters and gags still intact a re-spun plot that omitted all the good bits including the electric monk and no Coleridge.

I'm sure you can probably find it in the torrents...

Comment by Larian LeQuella on October 9, 2010 at 4:13pm: Thank you Andrew! Signed up and hit you up on FB too. :)

Comment by Andrew Skegg on October 9, 2010 at 4:09pm: Happy Douglas Day!
I noticed there was not a Facebook group for this (oh noes), so I created one.
