In Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a superior race builds a supercomputer able to calculate the meaning of life!. The answer they get after many years is 42!. The super computer then says what they really want is the correct question that puts the answer into perspective!.

So as a joke people will say the meaning of life is 42!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Douglas Adams HHG to the G!. One of the races in the book built a super computer (deep thought) that takes 7 1/2 million years t discover the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything!. 42!. The problem!? It was the wrong question!.

So begins the quest for the ultimate question!.
