Dirk Gently’s Holistic Picnic

This Saturday (May 29) the Helsinki university sf club organizes their traditional event, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Picnic. The picnic starts at the Helsinki railway station at 2 PM (near the departing local trains sign). You need money, a Helsinki time table, and salted peanuts. The picnic spot will be randomly drawn using the phone book map and flipism. If the weather is bad, the nearest bar will be designated as the randomly selected spot.
“Of course I will explain to you again why the trip to the Bahamas was so vitally necessary” said Dirk Gently soothingly. “Nothing could give me greater pleasure. I believe, as you know, Mrs Sauskind, in the fundamental interconnectedness of all things.”
— Douglas Adams, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency
