The senior wizards of Unseen University stood and looked at the door.
There was no doubt that whoever had shut it wanted it to stay shut. Dozens
of nails secured it to the door frame. Planks had been nailed right across.
And finally it had, up until this morning, been hidden by a bookcase that
had been put in front of it.
"And there's the sign, Ridcully," said the Dean. "You /have/ read it, I
assume. You know? The sign which says 'Do not, under any circumstances,
open this door'?"
"Of course I've read it," said Ridcully. "Why d'yer think I want it
opened?"
"Er... why?" said the Lecturer in Recent Runes.
"To see why they wanted it shut, of course."(1)
(1) This exchange contains almost all you need to know about human
civilization. At least, those bits of it that are now under the sea,
fenced off or still smoking.

Then the Dean repeated the mantra that has had such a marked effect on the
progress of knowledge throughout the ages.
"Why don't we just mix up absolutely everything and see what happens?" he
said.
And Ridcully responded with the traditional response.
"It's got to be worth a try," he said.

"I don't hold with using that thinking machine," said the Dean. "I've said
this before. It's meddling with the cult. The /oc/cult has always been
good enough for me, thank you very much."
"On the other hand it's the only person round here who can think straight
and it does what it's told," said Ridcully.
