"We carve out groups of stars in the heavens, and call them constellations, and the stars patiently suffer us to do so–tho if they knew what we were doing, some of them might feel much surprised at the partners we had given them. We name the same constellation diversely, as Charles’s Wain, the Great Bear, or the Dipper. None of the names will be false, and one will be as true as another, for all are applicable.

 

In all these cases we humanly make an addition to some sensible reality, and that reality tolerates the addition. All the additions ‘agree’ with the reality; they fit it, while they build it out. No one of them is false. Which may be treated as the more true, depends altogether on the human use of it. If the 27 is a number of dollars which I find in a drawer where I had left 28, it is 28 minus 1. If it is the number of inches in a shelf which I wish to insert into a cupboard 26 inches wide, it is 26 plus 1. If I wish to ennoble the heavens by the constellations I see there, ‘Charles’s Wain’ would be more true than ‘Dipper.’ ... ...

 

What shall we call a THING anyhow? It seems quite arbitrary, for we carve out everything, just as we carve out constellations, to suit our human purposes. For me, this whole ‘audience’ is one thing, which grows now restless, now attentive. I have no use at present for its individual units, so I don’t consider them. So of an ‘army,’ of a ‘nation.’ But in your own eyes, ladies and gentlemen, to call you ‘audience’ is an accidental way of taking you. The permanently real things for you are your individual persons. To an anatomist, again, those persons are but organisms, and the real things are the organs. Not the organs, so much as their constituent cells, say the histologists; not the cells, but their molecules, say in turn the chemists."

Passing under the heavy duty remnants of the former 1500v DC Woodhead Route catenary, Northern 142064 slows for the stop at Guide Bridge. A very busy spot that sees eight stoppers, four non-stop and a freight in the hour after this train.

The line to left is the normally freight only (plus weekly parliamentarian train) line to Heaton Norris Jct via Denton.

It arrived from York City & District in March, 1990, and had already been converted to open top, in March, 1985.

Another dark but atmospheric shot, note Stan's butties next to the train brake, the brew can and preffered mug, the newspaper at the back of the console and my 135mm Yashica lens next to the brew can! Stan was an ex Macclesfield man and kept chickens - hence the nickname, very nice eggs, too!

一齣單純的科幻廣播喜劇,如何紅到所有人期待它的續集——

 

★出版3個月內狂銷25萬本

★Google的加州總部取名自它

★IBM的超級電腦命名繆思

★Siri用它回答永恆的大哉問

★英國BBC「大閱讀」票選百本最受讀者喜愛的小說第四名(僅落後《魔戒》等、打敗《哈利波特4》)

★圖書館把它列為青少年必讀書單……

 

【暢銷的誕生】

年輕時帶著「歐洲便車指南」遊歐洲結果大迷路的道格拉斯‧亞當斯(被書迷暱稱DNA),有天喝醉了躺在路邊的草地上,看著天空胡思亂想:如果有一天要到銀河去旅遊,也該要有一本旅遊指南吧,所以創作了這系列的小說。

 

【史上最暢銷書籍簡介】

《銀河便車指南》:不是地球上的書,從來沒在地球出版過,即便如此,這不只是本極為出色的書,同時也是超級暢銷書——《銀河便車指南》已經取代了偉大的《大銀河百科全書》,成為所有知識和智慧的標準寶庫;雖然它有不少疏漏和謬誤,卻仍在兩處要點上勝過那陳舊且乏味的大百科。第一,它稍稍便宜一點點;第二,它的封面上有兩個友善的大字:別慌。

 

○貼心的叮嚀:

印著「別慌」(Don’t Panic)的小儀器,當然就是電子書了!整個宇宙這麼大,如果印成書,那會是好幾棟房子那麼多的書;因此「別慌」也很貼切,在陌生的國度與星球,不管發生什麼事——都不要慌。

 

【故事大綱】

福特•派法特(Ford Prefect)是一位漫遊研究員,來自參宿四附近的小行星,受僱於《銀河便車指南》——如今他已受困於地球15年,直到某天,為了興建一條超空間快速通道,渥罡人受命負責摧毀地球(編按:這場景是否很似曾相識?),福特終於藉機搭上渥罡人的便車,順便救走了他的地球朋友亞瑟•丹特。

 

脾氣不好的渥罡人發現了兩個不請自來的搭便車客,決定將兩人從太空船拋出氣閘——一般人在真空的環境下,無法存活超過三十秒,而在三十秒被另一艘太空船救起的機會更是數億萬分之一——前一刻剛偷走了以突破非或然率技術打造的太空船「黃金之心」的銀河總統柴法德•癟頭士和他的地球女朋友崔莉恩,剛巧駛經並救起了兩人。

 

四人駕著「黃金之心」朝傳說的星球馬格西亞出發。傳說中,馬格西亞是個替富人興建人造星球的星球,然而宇宙經濟過度膨脹,引發全宇宙的經濟破產(編按:這場景是否又很似曾相識?),馬格西亞的生意亦因此一落千丈,從此成為傳說。

 

亞瑟•丹特在馬格西亞上得知,地球其實只是一個實驗:在許多百萬年前,老鼠這種超智慧生物建造了一部超級電腦「深思」,想知道「生命、宇宙及萬事萬物」的終極答案是什麼;經過一段長時間的計算,深思告訴老鼠的後人,答案是42——「深思」解釋,它只能計算出答案是什麼,但答案的原因必須由另一部更高智能的電腦負責解釋——而該部電腦就是地球。

 

在計算出「原因」前的5分鐘,地球卻被渥罡人毀滅了、全部資料銷毀——老鼠認為僅有的資料寄存在最後離開地球的亞瑟•丹特腦中,於是決定打起亞瑟•丹特的腦的主意……

Tokyo (東京, Tōkyō) is Japan's capital and the world's most populous metropolis. It is also one of Japan's 47 prefectures, consisting of 23 central city wards and multiple cities, towns and villages west of the city center. The Izu and Ogasawara Islands are also part of Tokyo.

 

Prior to 1868, Tokyo was known as Edo. A small castle town in the 16th century, Edo became Japan's political center in 1603 when Tokugawa Ieyasu established his feudal government there. A few decades later, Edo had grown into one of the world's most populous cities. With the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the emperor and capital moved from Kyoto to Edo, which was renamed Tokyo ("Eastern Capital"). Large parts of Tokyo were destroyed in the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and in the air raids of 1945.

 

Today, Tokyo offers a seemingly unlimited choice of shopping, entertainment, culture and dining to its visitors. The city's history can be appreciated in districts such as Asakusa and in many excellent museums, historic temples and gardens. Contrary to common perception, Tokyo also offers a number of attractive green spaces in the city center and within relatively short train rides at its outskirts.

Driving towards Kerala, we were passing Bandipur forest. Just then I saw this streak of light and could not help reverse the car to capture this. I was lucky with a group of tourists stopped right in the path of the sunlight...
