Great news for the fans of the Hitchhikers's Guide to the Galaxy series by the late Douglas Adams: the Babelfish is here! Put it in your ear and be awed at it's ability to instantly translate words between you and your foreign conversation partner. It works! It's true.

And here's something to think about when you scratch your head thinking 'I'm too old for this.' Because you're not.

A monster you never heard of
