Now here’s a story that I’ll bet Knippenberg missed: A speculative article about prime numbers and physics that suggests the key number in a certain mathematical sequence is 42, the very number said to be the answer to everything in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. (Don’t worry: I don’t understand it either.)
Hat tip: Nick Danger at redstate.
Of course "42" is the ultimate answer to the ultimate question about life the universe and everything. However, the unltimate question is: "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?"

But wasn’t it Jimi Hendrix who asked "If 6 were 9?"
6 times 9 = 42 (base 13)
God has 13 fingers.
So is the fourth moment 60?
But is it "25 or 6 to 4"?
Peter: That only works in Chicago.
Groan.
