Sainted, late[1] greatly lamented author of The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe and other minor comic gems like The Meaning of Liff and Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. Inadvertently prescient. Predicting things like Wikipedia (which is basically The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, right?) and the gnab gib, which these days is a serious cosmological theory.
