First off it is Prefect not Perfect and the answer is 47 not 45.
There was a car in England made by Ford called the Prefect that totally bombed and so Doug Adams named the character that as a joke on Fords. You're right Raistlin those faces do look like the one on the cover.

I guess we were both wrong. 42 the answer to Life the Universe and Everything but because of the ramifications of this profound answer no one in the known Universe now, in the past or in the future can handle knowing both the exact question and the answer!
