Every attempt to make some form of non print version of the Guide has been unrewarding.
I will venture to guess this will be the same.

i know, because the book is about storytelling, satire, and it doesn't actually have any point to it besides making fun of every possible thing it can. still, i'm excited to see what hollywood will make of it although i was more baffled by the "So Long And Thanks For All The Fish" part from the whole series, to be ironically taking place on Earth. |

Because Douglas Adams is dead.
They did make one book out of his works in progress after he died.
