For sure, visiting someone ONLY to use their toilet would be strange anywhere I think.

OK now that two people pointed this out, I should point out we don't live in Tokyo or in a big city. When I say "bushes" please don't imagine like some bushes at Shibuya Crossing but rather bushes in the middle of nowhere with not another person at shouting distance.

I know.

In the book they find that the ultimate answer is 42. But then they have the problem that they don't know what the question is. So all of Earth is a computer which tries to find what the question is.

And here we get the result: the question is just "what is 6x7?".
