Gah, the infamous HHGTTG Infocom text adventure ... I played that back when it came out for the Apple IIe. I got stuck without the babel fish in the Vogon ship for months, until some kind person lent me the clue book for it. You had to do like 7 different things to stop those annoying little cleaning robots from taking it!

I used to have large sections of the books and radio plays committed to memory ... "Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm" etc. etc. I love the way DNA played with language in his writing.
