Preface - Light, Life and Everything

Welcome hitchhickers from Earth-6850! We are going to embark on an adventure to the galaxy far far away, and understand the ultimate answers to light, life and everything! Wait, 42? you already knew it? darn, I hate those spoilers.

Alright, how about this, I am going to teach you how to calculate that answer by yourself? We have just the right tool for that, called Monte Carlo eXtreme, or MCX, to properly consider the quadrillion possibilities that may happen in your life, and your planet, and give you answers that you can trust! Even better, MCX now uses the latest innovations from Vogon Tech, called GPU (Gravitational Propulsion Unit). It cuts the calculation time from 1000 billion Eons to merely a million! isn't that exciting?

So, hop on, and enjoy the ride! We will see you in the first chapter!
