Hello, estudent-ga!

Okay, I'll bite. (I wouldn't ever answer a question like this from a
first time customer, but I've seen your history, so I'm okay with it).
;)

The answer is 42. (Technically, that is "an" answer, as you've requested).

Sincerely,

Oh and by the way, when you do a Google Search on "42," that wiki link
is the very first result.

Now all you need is a question!

42???
Ahem... ... huh? ... I was hoping for something more sophisticated!

At least I liked the link...

Althought my planned response was:

Thank you!! Thank you!!
This exactly answers my question!!!
You saved my life!!


Tell me which one you like more.

By the way, I did not intent this question to be similar to the one
provided in the link. That was purely coincidental. I only wanted an
"Any answer goes" question, so the 42 answer arguably screwed up my
original intent.

LOL! I like your planned response and now you have me wondering what
kind of answer might've generated that response. Would "yes" have
sufficed? I'll tell you what. I'm shaking our Magic 8 ball (we
seriously have one) and it says (in answer to your unasked question):
"You may rely on it." Does that help?

Seriously, thank you very much for the 5 stars and the tip, too! 

Sincerely,
Boquinha-ga

I may rely on what exactly??? Definatively one of those
fits-all-on-all-occasions thing. And works exactly like HorrorScope
and the like.

As for the next question, here is one: <a

Here is a question for you: am I allowed links in comments section?
Subject: Re: I need an answer!
From: boquinha-ga on 13 Jan 2006 11:34 PST
 
Only researchers can post links that show up as hyperlinks. But I
admire your creativity and tenacity in trying different ways.

Until about a year ago, hyperlinks used to be permitted in comments by
non-researchers. As I recall, there was a huge influx of people
spamming their own websites in comments, and the policy was apparently
changed so that those spammers would not derive as much benefit from
their attempts to use Google Answers for free advertising.
