So what do you do after...

landing on magrathea, drinking the tea, saving the microscopic space fleet,
stealing the heart of gold, being picked up by 'phil', confusing the
ravenous bug-blatter beast of trall, rescuing arthur dent, and
reading the microscopic letters on the circuit board?

in particular, (a) the particle in the brain, is there some way of
getting it without being incinerated.  I liked the effect of
dropping things in the brain. and (b) how do you become intelligent 
enough to open the screening door, unjam the hatch, or understand
the control console.

******  SPOILER WARNING ******

You're very close -- however, it's Arthur who has to do the feeding
at the very beginning of the game.

******  END SPOILER *****

Now, for my own request:  I'm sick and tired of this game -- anyone
who feels like it, please *mail* me anything of help on this game --
in particular I haven't gotten anywhere in any of the sub adventures,
though I haven't spent much time on it.  If there's sufficient
interest, I'll post what I collect.  (with appropriate spoiler
warnings.)
