I simply can't imagine the last 20 years of my life without the works of Douglas Adams. Laughing myself to tears while being able to forget about the stresses of high school, college, and now a career. Rest in peace.

"So that all his fans everywhere can pay tribute to this genius, I propose that two weeks after his passing (May 25, 2001) be marked as "Towel Day". All Douglas Adams fans are encouraged to carry a towel with them for the day."

"The Heart of Gold" is its name, it runs on an Infinite Improbability Drive.

in case you're wondering, it cost a mere 5,000,000 Arterian MegaDollars (1 Arterian MegaDollar ~ 1E999 Pounds Sterling)
