4. Interesting bit of computer lore...
In the TIFF file format, the first two bytes indicate "endian-ness" (which byte is most significant). The SECOND two bytes evaluate to "42" and the spec defines that as "an arbitrary but carefully chosen number". I happen to have the spec on my desk open to page 13 (my favorite number) where that actual statement is printed.

It was all I could do not to put them straight onto ignore. I'm so touchy lately.

17. I loved the BBC Radio plays...
... and the first BBC TV series in addition to the books.... the recent movie.. not so much.

Try to find the radio versions if you can.
