The title says it all.

Mr. Adams was a master of witty dialog, satire and insightful humor. He'll be greatly missed by this very big fan of his works.

42!

As an owner of The Hitch-hiker's Guide To The Galaxy cassette tape set which I never tire of listening to I'd like to second the previous comments.

RIP. Douglas and thank you.

I am sorry to hear of his untimely demise.

I remember debating many of his fantastic ideas with engineering buddies during my college days. A favorite of mine was the probability drive!
