    Extractions: Douglas Adams is the creator of all the various contradictory manifestations of The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which include a radio series, a tv series, a stage play, record albums, a computer game, a series of internationally best-selling books, a set of graphic novels and, apotheotically, a bath towel. In a long and varied career Douglas has also written the Dirk Gently novels, a non-fiction book (Last Chance to See) on endangered species, worked as a chicken shed cleaner, a bodyguard for an Arab royal family, and played guitar for Pink Floyd. Douglas is a founding partner and the Chief Fantasist of The Digital Village "Being part of The Digital Village lets me get back to where I once belonged. When I started out I worked in radio, I worked in TV, I worked on stage... I enjoyed experimenting with different media, working with people and, wherever possible, fiddling with bits of equipment. Then I accidentally wrote a best-selling novel and the consequence was that I had to write another and then another. After a decade or so of this I became a little crazed at the thought of spending an entire working life sitting in a room by myself typing. I needed to do a bit of crop rotation. Hence The Digital Village. "My main role at the Village is to create new projects, to move from one medium to another, to think strategically about new media and to fiddle with bits of equipment."

    Extractions: The author Douglas Adams, who has died aged 49, became a household name when his BBC TV series, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, was turned into a cult science fiction novel. Adams had worked as a radio and television writer and producer before his life was changed by the book's publication in 1979. It went on to sell more than 14m copies worldwide and preceded a series of best-selling titles by the author, including The Restaurant At The End Of The Universe; Life, The Universe And Everything; So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish; and Mostly Harmless. The five books in the series detailed the adventures of Earthman Arthur Dent, who hitched a lift on a passing starship when his home planet was destroyed to make way for an interstellar bypass.

    http://koti.mbnet.fi/~villes/Linnunrata-trilogia/
    
    Extractions: Sivuston historia Näille sivuille olen kerännyt Douglas Adamsin Linnunrata -trilogian henkilöt ja planeetat taulukoihin eräänlaisiksi "Kuka kukin on" -listoiksi. Olen myös kerännyt joitakin lainauksia kirjoista. Taulukoihin pääset tämän sivun ylälaidasta klikkaamalla kirjan nimeä tai linkkiä " Kaikki ". Kaikki-listassa kukin hahmo esiintyy vain kerran, kirjakohtaisissa listoissa ovat kaikki kyseisessä kirjassa esiintyvät hahmot. Sivun ylälaitaan Hahmotlistauksien sarakkeet on otsikoitu " Sivu ", " Kuka ", " Mikä ", " Mitä " ja " Mainitaan useammin kuin kerran? ". Ne tarkoittavat "Sivu jolla ko. hahmo esiintyy", "Hahmon nimi" (nimen perässä voi myös olla tähti, joka viittaa ulos kotisivuiltani lisätietoon hahmosta), "Mikä hahmo oikeastaan on", "Mitä hahmo tekee" (yleensä, juuri tässä kohdassa tai juuri tässä kirjassa) ja "Mainitaanko hahmo useammin kuin kerran". Tämä on tosin aika joustava käsite; nimi voi esiintyä kaksikin kertaa, mutta jos se esiintyy esim. vain tällä sivulla ja/tai ei ole vuorovaikutuksessa varsinaisten hahmojen kanssa, tulee merkinnäksi Ei. Jos sivu-merkinnässä on toinen numero suluissa, tarkoittaa se, että hahmo on mainittu ensimmäisen kerran tällä sivulla mutta nimi on paljastunut vasta sivulla jonka ympärillä ei ole sulkuja.

    Extractions: I've gotten lots of e-mail asking, "Where are Douglas Adams' answers to our questions ? Has he forgotten us?" Obviously, no one was forgotten, but the man had a screenplay on deadline and had to work, work, work. Yes, if we had a hall of fame category for "Longest time between interview questions and responses to them," this one would be #1, but it was worth waiting for. Obviously there was never any cause for panic, but all true Douglas Adams fans already knew that, right? Relationship to Terry Pratchett? by Enoch Root One author who is often compared to you in terms of style and humor is Terry Pratchett of Discworld fame. What is your opinion of Pratchett's work? Do you agree or disagree with the comparisons between your works? DA: I can't really answer this one. I've never read anything by Terry Pratchett.

    Extractions: Author Douglas Adams, who wrote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, has died suddenly aged 49. Mr Adams died on Friday morning in Santa Barbara, California, following a heart attack, said his spokeswoman Sophie Astin. The author became a household name when the cult science fiction novel was turned into a BBC TV series. Alan Yentob Prominent figures at the BBC, who worked with Adams on many projects, have spoken of their shock and sorrow at his death. Alan Yentob, the BBC director of drama and entertainment, said: "Douglas was a big character who will be hugely missed by a host of friends and millions of fans around the world. "He was a gifted writer; a one-off talent who managed to combine fantasy and humanity in books which enthralled generations of readers. We'll miss him enormously." The BBC's head of comedy, Geoffrey Perkins, who produced the original Hitchhiker's radio series, said: "I'm absolutely devastated. I've known Douglas for 25 years. He was absolutely one of the most creative geniuses to ever work in radio comedy.
