Farenheit 451 is one of Ray Bradbury's most famous stories. What is significant about 451 degrees F?

  fishypants
  Paper typically burns closer to 451 degrees celsius! Bradbury decided to go with Fahrenheit because it sounds better!

  Though that has been debunked many a time. Different paper burns at different temperatures. However, it does make for a catchy title!

Which 2 fastors add up to the now famous number that douglas adams quoted as "The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything?" all in base 13?
- 6
  standbythree
  > Everybody was looking for hidden meanings and puzzles and significances in what I had written (like 'is it significant that 6 * 9 is 42 in base 13?'. As if.)
  
  Math wasn't Douglas Adam's strong point. 6 * 9 is 54 decimal, or 40 in base 13. Consequently I'm not sure if this question is very very stupid, or very very clever.

  Wait... I'm confused...
  
  The number is 43. In base13, that's 34. 6*9 is still 6*9 in base 13... Isn't it?

    I'm confused too. The number is actually 42.

    (But despite the tags, you can't solve this one with math. The "literature" and "comedy" tags are more pertinent!)
