[OSList] Answers?

[Harold Shinsato via OSList]

Thank you Harrison. Great question! I hope this reply (answer?) is 
appropriately irreverent...

Your thinking reminds me of the classic Hitchhiker's Guide to the 
Galaxy. An ancient race on a distant star system built an enormous 
computer to calculate "The Answer". The "Answer to the Ultimate Question 
of Life, the Universe, and Everything". It took the computer 7.5 million 
years. And famously, the answer was 42.

The computer ("Deep Thought") told them now they needed the ultimate 
question, and told them they needed to build an even bigger computer 
(the size of the earth) to calculate the question.

     Cheers,
     Harold
