LOL! You made my day

I've noticed that there are quite some things that Adams 'predicted' in the 70's and 80's which is actually true now. It seems book 5 is (among other things) about tracking usage statistics and surveilance of the users of the Guide.

Sounds a lot like Amazon and Google tracking the usage of their devices....

Hm. Maybe these books need another read later on. It looks like they can grow on you because of the allegories and 'predictions.'
