Why Choose?

neither Pratchett's nor Adams' work precludes that of the other. the Discworld may be a part of the universe far removed from the spacelanes hitchhikers normally travel, but that doesn't mean it can't be part of the same universe. As pratchett says, in an infinite universe, everything has to exist somewhere.

Posted Sep 19, 2007 by TRiG (Ireland) Human rights under attack in Uganda. Look it up. Excellent coverage on the blog "Box Turtle Bulletin"
I'm now trying to imagine Arthur Dent in Ankh-Morpok. What a wonderful image! I can see Ford in the Mended Drum, alright.
