Cool. Thanks for posting that. I need to go back and reread Heinlein.


That wasn't from Heinlein. It was from "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" by Douglas Adams.

The introduction to the book is -

Introduction

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers
exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will
instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more
bizarre and inexplicable.

Another Introduction

There is another theory which states that this has already
happened.
