isn't this just what we all had been hoping? that he WOULD find a way - no matter how much improbability needed - to keep in touch with us. it makes me smile - and I'm sure he'll be around in MANY ways - every time we come across something that could as well be one of his genious sparks.

When DA appeared on 'Quote Unquote' before his death and was asked to consider his own epitaph, Adams (known for his inability to meet deadlines) said "he finally met his deadline".
