55. Q2. A X is just about the most massively useful thing any interstellar
Y can carry. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it
around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons
of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded
beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can
sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert
world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow
heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand combat; wrap it
round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of
the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mind-bogglingly stupid
animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you — daft as a
brush, but very very ravenous); you can wave your X in emergencies
as a distress signal.
IDENTIFY X AS WELL AS THE SERIES. BONUS POINTS IF YOU CAN
GIVE ME THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE ITEM.
56. ANSWER:
THE TOWEL IN THE ULTIMATE HITCHIKERS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY
a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if
a strag (strag: non-hitchhiker) discovers that a hitchhiker has his
towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in
possession of a toothbrush, washcloth, soap, tin of biscuits, flask,
compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet-weather gear, space
suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the
hitchhiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitchhiker
might accidentally have "lost." What the strag will think is that any
man who can hitch the length and breadth of the Galaxy, rough it,
slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through and still knows
where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with.

embarrassment. He is often sarcastic and drunk as
well as anything but sober. However, when pushed
shows himself to be highly canny as he guides his
protégés in a cleverly designed, highly unorthodox
strategy aimed at securing their survival.
63. Q6.” ...he has no ambition and no energy. He will
not even go out of his way to verify his own
solutions, and would rather be considered wrong
than take the trouble to prove himself right. Again
and again I have taken a problem to him, and have
received an explanation which has afterwards
proved to be the correct one. And yet he
was absolutely incapable of working out the
practical points...” . IDENTIFY THE PERSON

disposition. It is their pleasure to open for you, and their
satisfaction to close with the knowledge of a job well done.
The unique thing about X is that it is powered by the Infinite
Improbability Drive, a small golden box at the heart of the
ship — hence its name. This is, of course, powered by an
infinite improbability generator. As soon as the ship's drive
reaches infinite improbability, it passes through every point in
the Universe, thus allowing the ship to go anywhere without
all of that mucking about with hyperspace and what not.
