    - and so another, even bigger, computer had to be built to find out what the actual question was.
    And this computer, which was called Earth, was so large that it was frequently mistaken for a planet - especially by the strange apelike beings who roamed its surface, totally unaware that they were simply part of a gigantic computer program.
    And this is very odd, because without that fairly simple and obvious piece of knowledge, nothing that ever happened on Earth could possibly make sense.
