Miscellaneous thoughts on politics, people, math, science and other cool (if sometimes frustrating) stuff from somewhere near my favorite coffee shop.

I Hope This Is Made Available Online
Douglas Adams fans, prepare and celebrate: BBC 4 is doing a television adaptation of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. I will see it sooner or later. Oh, yes. I will. I'd rather sooner.
My aunt sent me that book back when I was a tween and thought I'd become a PI when I grew up. Have been hooked on Dirk Gently and Douglas Adams ever since.
I never heard of Dirk Gently, but I loved all the Hitch-hiker books. Also the BBC radio series based on Hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy was fantastic. I remember listening to that on NPR in California before I had ever seen any of the books. Must have been the early '80's.

ReplyDeleteAh, the memories!
