Re: Twenty Questions - 42nd Game
With game #42 up I was going to make an early guess at Ford Prefect or Zaphod Beeblebrox, but that is out of the window.

Re: Twenty Questions - 42nd Game
I assume this is not your actual guess, or is it?

Re: Twenty Questions - 42nd Game
It would be a very impressive person indeed if they'd managed to be alive in the 18th, 19th and 21st centuries, but not alive in the 20th century.
Either way up, the answer is "no".
