From Phil Ward
Having just finished listening to the Douglas Adams memorial programme on
BBC Radio 4, I sit down to eat while reading New Scientist.
A feature on newly discovered quantum aspects of knot theory
(10 November, p 40)
keeps me from my risotto, and asks what’s so special about the number 4/7.
As I get to that question, for some reason I glance down at the page number.
It’s page 42. I make a dash to the bathroom for a particularly large towel and
await the Vogon Constructor Fleet.
