As you may recall, "Deep Thought", the second greatest computer in the
Universe, tells us that the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything
is 42.  In a flash of insight I've finally figured out what the meaning
of "The Answer" is, and what the question is...

The question is, "What is the name of the Universe."

The answer is, Unix bsd42.

This also tells us what bsd4.2 will be like.  Exactly one tenth as many
features as the Universe itself.  Similarly, bsd4.2 will have exactly one
tenth as many bugs .
