2008 was the last official LEC poll . I feel we are long overdue the use of this excellent webpage extra.
Use your vote wisely .

So far the poll shows you are mostly a bunch of nerds.

I suspect that like me some people Don't know what you mean, as I ve never read it. And can't remember the poll in 2008 so couldn't choose an appropriate answer.

Plus those that do know what you mean and can't remember the poll

Plus those who weren't here in 2008

Has to be a clear winner by default

Is there a swingometer feature to interpret the results?

Nerds! Wash your mouth out!
Every educated person knows the Answer to the Ultimate Question of 'What's the Meaning of Life, The Universe and Everything?' is "42" ...
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy said so, and you can't argue with that ...

Phil,

The phillistine who goes by the name of "Clemo" is fully aware of the answer - having been extensively educated by myself and others over a (cheap) beer or several at a suitable Cambodian 'refreshment house' in Kampot. (and they even had a local cider, which will not have Thatchers worried about world domination).
Dave

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, I had worked out he must be to put '42' as one of the options... :lol: It was more for Simon and other 'non-nerds' ...

My Elan has some other numbers in it but my first ever car was 524 so I had some 'autopilot'/ memory problems with the Elan plate initially, until I thought of mnemonic 'the Elan is the meaning of life' ...

I suspect that since Simon said "I ve never read it", he did know what it meant.

Maybe.................

Maybe ... I've never read it either. Heard it as a Radio 4 programme in the late 70's... :lol:
