you may run into him. Just answer "42" to any of his questions he will allow you to continue on your way.
"A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools,"
-Douglas Adams. See and hear more from Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect in the Hitchhiker movie that was released on April 29, 2005
At DemiCon, we have a tradition of nominating a Ghost of Honor to compliment our Guests of Honor. The Ghost of
Honor title both honors someone whose life has made an important mark on fandom as well as serves as a theme for
some DemiCon events. With this year´s Ghost of Honor being Douglas Adams, you can expect the unusual from DemiCon.
Join us in the "ConSuite at the End of the Universe" and contemplate Life, the Universe and DemiCon.
