Let
me
tell
you
the
whole
story
.
It
'll
take
a
little
time

Time

There
are
of
course
many
problems
connected
with
life
,
of
which
some
of
the
most
popular
are
Why
are
people
born
?
Why
do
they
die
?
Why
do
they
want
to
spend
so
much
of
the
intervening
time
wearing
digital
watches
?
Many
many
millions
of
years
ago
a
race
of
hyperintelligent
pan-dimensional
beings
(
whose
physical
manifestation
in
their
own
pan-dimensional
universe
is
not
dissimilar
to
our
own
)
got
so
fed
up
with
the
constant
bickering
about
the
meaning
of
life
which
used
to
interrupt
their
favourite
pastime
of
Brockian
Ultra
Cricket
(
a
curious
game
which
involved
suddenly
hitting
people
for
no
readily
apparent
reason
and
then
running
away
)
that
they
decided
to
sit
down
and
solve
their
problems
once
and
for
all
.
And
to
this
end
they
built
themselves
a
stupendous
super
computer
which
was
so
amazingly
intelligent
that
even
before
the
data
banks
had
been
connected
up
it
had
started
from
I
think
therefore
I
am
and
got
as
far
as
the
existence
of
rice
pudding
and
income
tax
before
anyone
managed
to
turn
it
off
.
It
was
the
size
of
a
small
city
.
Its
main
console
was
installed
in
a
specially
designed
executive
office
,
mounted
on
an
enormous
executive
desk
of
finest
ultramahogany
topped
with
rich
ultrared
leather
.
The
dark
carpeting
was
discreetly
sumptuous
,
exotic
pot
plants
and
tastefully
engraved
prints
of
the
principal
computer
programmers
and
their
families
were
deployed
liberally
about
the
room
,
and
stately
windows
looked
out
upon
a
tree-lined
public
square
.
On
the
day
of
the
Great
On-Turning
two
soberly
dressed
programmers
with
brief
cases
arrived
and
were
shown
discreetly
into
the
office
.
They
were
aware
that
this
day
they
would
represent
their
entire
race
in
its
greatest
moment
,
but
they
conducted
themselves
calmly
and
quietly
as
they
seated
themselves
deferentially
before
the
desk
,
opened
their
brief
cases
and
took
out
their
leather-bound
notebooks
.
Their
names
were
Lunkwill
and
Fook
.
