Anybody who knows where their towel is also knows that the ultimate question, to which the answer is 42, is:
"what do you get when you multiply six by nine"

Only because you have insufficient scrabble letters in your towel! The ultimate Question and its Answer are mutually exclusive. Knowledge of one logically precludes knowledge of the other. It is impossible that both can ever be known in the same universe. If it did happen, then the question and the answer would just cancel each other out, taking the Universe with them. There is another theory, of course, which states that this has already happened.
