This option should be "Computing the question to the universe on my new 3GHz dual-core system."

Actually, the question was eventually (preventually?) found:

What is 6 x 9?

Actually that's not the real question (if you knew the question and the answer at same time, the universe would disappear and be replaced by something else :-) I don't know if I'll be "Watching the clock" or "Clocking the Watch"...

I think you are on to something here, if you think the 69 like a yin-yang sign. However, perl doesn't think so, try: `perl -e 'print 6 x 9'` Must be that missing 12.... Personally, I think that the answer was given in an dyslexic way, and should have been 24. But if it still is 42, then the factors are 237, which on an upside-down TI82 would spell all letters... however, in which order should they be?	[reply] [d/l]

Personally, I think that the answer was given in an dyslexic way, and should have been 24. What if the question was in a different base? Obviously at least base 10, but perhaps higher. Hmmm.... -QM -- Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of	[reply]
