Това е коментарът на Тери Пратчет по повод вестта за смъртта на Дъглас Адамс, който той направи в нюзгрупата "alt.fan.pratchett". Стори ми се ... трогателен. Затова го копирам тук.

>>It has just been announced that Douglas Adams has died, aged 49 of a
>>heart attack.
I read about it in a small par in USA Today on Monday, nearly threw up,
and then tried to remember the Betelguesian Death Anthem.
People never believe this, but I met him only once, at an event attended
by five hundred other people in a big and noisy room, and had a brief
and inconsequential conversation when a mutual friend introduced us; it
was difficult because the severe difference in our heights and the crush
of the party meant that we were both straining our necks even to see the
other guy. And that was it. There were plenty of times when we quite
spookily did not meet and ought to have done.
He was four years younger than me. I spent the rest of the day with the
sense that the world had faded to grey, and feeling very, very angry.
