Well the universe is a very big place and also very old compared to we
tiny islands of thought. There is much beauty in it, but also chaos.
Do you have a specific question you would like to ask the group on
their opinions of this majesty?
"Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely
mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down
the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space."

"He used... sarcasm. He knew all the tricks, dramatic irony, metaphor,
bathos, puns, parody, litotes and... satire. He was vicious."
My advice is that if you visit you should dress in layers. Most of it
is very cold, but some of it is really quite warm.
All Universes are thin at one end, much thicker in the middle and then
thin again at the far end. That is my theory, it is mine, and belongs
to me and I own it, and what it is too.

That's an easy one. The answer is 42.
And the question is ...?
The universe is almost entirely made of empty space. Even matter like
the earth is mostly made empty space and it can be compressed to
almost nothing.
Or perhaps the universe is like a matter/anti-matter fluctuation
and really IS nothing at all.
And 99.9999999999999999999999999 % of all that seems to be devoid of any life. Pretty boring place if
you ask me...

The universe is a big place, perhaps the biggest.

"It's a great big universe and we're all really puny
We're tiny little specks about the size of Mickey Rooney
It's big and black and inky, and we're all really dinky
It's a big universe and we're not."

That's the more difficult part.

"However," replied the universe,
"The fact has not created in me
A sense of obligation."

You've come to the wrong place.
Oh, everybody always says that to me, too.
"The universe" is everything that there is, including the invisible
parts that we don't know about, and all the gods.
Suggestion 1: Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/ and find the article on
"Universe", read it, ask any particular remaining questions here.
Suggestion 2: Go to that site and read everything.
Pack a lunch. You may be there a while. 8-}
Well, paging through this thread (I'm using Google Groups, so that's
easy to do), I've figured out why the OP hasn't responded. It took a
little longer than usual for me to figure it out, though.

Sounds like Toledo, Ohio.

Mark! It's obvious. (points) That one.
Now I understand. You mean like Ray's head!

I'd Chez Watt that, but very few people are going to get it these days (and
hardly any non-USAians). Made me laugh, though.
Folks, we have a winner!
