” The Bistromathic Drive is used in Slartibartfast’s craft Bistromath and works by exploiting the irrational mathematics that apply to numbers on a waiter’s bill pad and groups of people in restaurants. “
I think Bistromath only leads one not to jump across the universe, but into another universe, because it seems after each lunch I have, that when I get back from lunch it seems that i have moved into a slightly more horrible universe where the populace is dumber and Obama has more power and the Republicans are more spineless....
I blame Europe's Large Hydron Collider for that. They fooled with forces they didn't understand. We are now in the bizarre "mirror mirror" universe of startrek fiction where America spies on it's citizens and Russia lectures us on Christian values.
