excerpt from the hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy by Douglas Adams read by Darrell Evans. It wasn't infinity. In fact infinity itself looks flat and un interesting. Looking up into the night sky, is looking into infinity distance is incomprehensible, and therefore meaningless. The chamber into which the eric are emerged was anything but infinite. It was just very, very, very big, so big that it gave the impression of infinity far better than infinity itself. Arthur senses bobbed and spun, traveling at the immense speed. He knew the air car attained. They climbed slowly through the open air, leaving the gateway through which they had passed an invisible pinprick in the shimmering wall behind them. The wall! The wall defied imagination seduced it and defeated it. The wall was so paralyzing, li vast and sheer that its top bottom and sides passed away beyond the reach of sight. The mere shock of vertigo could kill a man. The wall appeared perfectly flat. It would take the finest laser measuring equipment to detect that as it climbed, apparently to infinity, as it dropped dizzyingly away, as it planned out to either side. It also curved, met itself again. 13 light seconds away. In other words, the wall formed the inside of a hollow sphere, a sphere over three million miles across and flooded with unimaginable light. Welcome, said Slot of art as the tiny speck that was the air car traveling now, at three times the speed of sound crept imperceptibly forward into the mind, boggling space. Welcome! He said to our factory floor. Arthur cared about him in a kind of wonder. Horror ranged away before them at distances he could neither judge nor even guess at, were a series of curious suspensions, delicate trace. Aries of metal and light hung about shadowy spherical shapes that hung in the space. This said sloppy, But fast is where we make most of our planet's U. C. You mean? Said Arthur, trying to form the words. You mean. You're just starting it up again now? No, no! Good heavens! No! Exclaimed the old man. No, the galaxy isn't nearly rich enough to support us yet. No, we've been asked to perform just one extraordinary commission for very special clients from another dimension. It may interest you there in the distance in front of us, Arthur followed the old man's finger till he was able to pick out the floating structure he was pointing at. It was indeed the only one of the many structures that betrayed any sign of activity about it, though this was more a subliminal impression than anything one could put one's finger on. At that moment, however, a flash of light arc through the structure and revealed in stark relief the patterns that were formed on the dark sphere within patterns that Arthur knew rough blobby shapes that were as familiar to him as the shapes of words. Parts of the furniture of his mind. For a few seconds he sat in stunned silence as the images rushed around his mind and tried to find somewhere to settle down and make sense. Part of his brain told him that he knew perfectly well what he was looking at and what the shapes represented, while another quite sensibly refused to countenance the idea and abdicated responsibility for any other thinking in that direction. The flash came again, and this time there would be no doubt the earth! Whispered Arthur. Well, the Earth Mark too. In fact, said slutty. Bart fast, cheerfully. We're making a copy from our original blueprints. There was a pause. Are you trying to tell me? Said Arthur, slowly, and with control that you originally made the Earth? Oh, yes, said slowly. Bart fast. Did you ever go to a place? I think it was called Norway? No, said Arthur. No, I didn't pity, said slutty. Bart Fast. That was divine won an award, you know, lovely crinkly edges. I was most upset to hear of its destruction. You were upset? Yes, five minutes later, and it wouldn't have mattered too much. But it was quite a shocking **** up. Uh The mice were furious. The moist were furious. Oh, yes, said the old man mildly. Yes. Well, so, I expect, were the dogs and cats and took billed platypuses. But ah, but they hadn't paid for it, you see, had they
