  1. You seem to find these all over. I've forgotten what it means. Tell me again please.

    1. Yes, Viktoria has it! More info from the wiki: "This Answer was first calculated by the supercomputer Deep Thought after seven and a half million years of thought." http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/42

  2. It´s the answer to the question of the meaning of life, if I remember correctly. From "The hitch-hiker´s guide to the galaxy", one of the funniest books ever written. I never see them!

    1. Sometimes I have to frame it so other numbers don't intrude ;)

  3. Incredible. You have me looking every time I go out, but I have NEVER seen anything even close to this or any other numbers for that matter.

    1. We have one particular graphic artist who scatters them around, but the numbers 4 and 2 occasionally just occur in that order and I just focus in on them when I see them.

  4. This one looks kind of official.

    1. Yes, I don't know what it was with that one. It didn't look like street art, but I couldn't tell what project it could've been associated with there. It was odd.
