Douglas Adams used it in his book as the answer to the question of life. He 
chose 42 apparently because a straw poll of his friends showed it to be the 
most boring number of all. Ironically, given the success of the book, it has 
become an interesting number. It also turns out that mathematically it's not 
especially boring, and indeed it is impossible for a number to be 
mathematically boring because if one were found, that would be interesting, 
paradoxically, and perhaps ironically.
