One plate, many entries
- ~42%Cortical PET ~42%
The Book printed a ~42% cortical PET figure and then demoted it as sealed law. The demotion is the object.
- ~40–42 HzGamma band ~40–42 Hz
Gamma activity is a band, commonly around 40 Hz. Forty-two is not a consciousness constant.
- ~42°26′ NIthaca, N.Y.
The city sits near 42°26′ N. A coordinate, not a cipher, and not Homer’s island.
- ~41–42 kaLaschamps
A real geomagnetic excursion dated around forty-two thousand years ago. Cooper, Turney and colleagues named a transitional phase the Adams Event. Homage is a fact about the paper’s naming. It is not Hitchhiker proof.
- ~42°Pyramid lateral edge
The face slope is ~51.8°. The corner walks the half-diagonal and rises near 42°.
