References
- The question about the towel is a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It is stated in the book that a towel is the most important thing a hitchhiker can have on him: among other things, if a non-hitchhiker sees the towel, he will assume that the hitchhiker also has everything else he could possibly need, and will willingly give the hitchhiker anything he may be missing at the moment.
