Will you prove that 6 * 9 = 42?

here read this:

Yes, 6 times 9 equals 54. Yes, 6 times 9 equals 42 in base thirteen,
and we don't want to know about the implications for the number of
fingers on cavemen.

The bit about monkeys was a reference to someone's comment that if you
get an infinite number of monkeys at typewriters, eventually one will
bash out a script to Hamlet. If you want to discuss probability,
quantum physics or anything else that has nothing to do with Douglas
Adams, ah heck off to another group.

DNA himself has said:
The answer to this is very simple. It was a joke. It had to be
a number, an ordinary, smallish number, and I chose that
one. Binary representations, base thirteen, Tibetan monks are
all complete nonsense. I sat at my desk, stared into the
garden and thought `42 will do'. I typed it out. End of
story.

And if you STILL won't believe it, here's the answers that were in the books
themselves. So consider yourself informed.

Answer one:
Well, of course it's...ehm...uh.. oh, I forgot.
/Fenchurch.

Answer two:
I know, but nobody asked me.
/Marvin

Answer three:
Six times 9 is forty-two.
/Arthur.

Answer four:
How many roads must a man walk down? Forty-two.
/Benji mouse.

Answer five:
The square root of minus one is forty-two.
<Deducted from several facts about marvin>

Answer six:
Pick a number, any number
/Marvin, to the Mattress

Pick your favourite one, and shut up about it already!
