Well, it's not if you read the last book.
Hidden:
Arthur Dent dies on 42nd street. Therefore, 42 represents death. The original question is "What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything in it?" One way to interpret this question is to say that it treats life, the universe, and everything in it as a problem that needs an "answer." Life, the universe, and everything in it is all of existence, and if existence is a problem, then death is obviously the answer.
I know smarts.
Yeah, that's all well and good, unless you care what the author has to say about the subject.

Not if you want a solid 95% of the theorems that result from the definition of prime numbers to hold.

Another reason is that 1 is the only multiplicative identity, and therefore a unique number. In ring theory, there is a class of units which is of fundamental importance and they must be found before we can even define the notion of a prime.

Ha, Ring Theory is just an extention of high school algebra. The real fun starts with Group Theory...
