far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western spiral arm of the galaxy lies a small, un regarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly 92 million miles, is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape descended lifeforms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea. This planet has, or rather had a problem, which was this. Most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper, the one happy. And so the problem remained. Lots of the people were mean on most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches. Many were increasingly off the opinion that they all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place on DH. Some said that even the trees have been a bad move on that no one should have left the oceans and then one Thursday, nearly 2000 years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people. For a change, a girl was sitting on her own in a small cafe on Rickman's Worth suddenly realised what it wass that had been going wrong this whole time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. The time was right. It would work, and no one would have to get nailed to anything. Sadly, however, before she could get to a phone to tell anyone about it, a terrible, stupid catastrophe of curd and the idea was lost forever. This is not her Storey, but it is the storey of that terrible stupid catastrophe and some of its consequences. It is also the storey of a book, a book called The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Not unearth book never published on Earth on DH until the terrible catastrophe occurred, never seen or even heard off by an Earth man. Nevertheless, ah, wholly remarkable book
