Last Chance To See
By: Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine

Time Master #6:
1.) Richard Lewis is a man who has worked out a foolproof way of getting snappy answers to his questions.
2.) "Why are you coming all the way to Mauritius to look for some crappy old fruit bat?"
3.) One of the first things you need to know about Richard Lewis, indeed the thing you need to know about him, is that he's an ornithologist.
4.) "I know that it was originally colonised by the Dutch."
5.) We were swaying erratically along, more or less in the middle of the road.
6.) "I really hate media people!"
7.) He peered at the recorder to make sure the tape really was running.
8.) "You know, I once did an interview for Woman's Hour on the radio?"
9.) We quickly discovered that we had fallen in with a bunch of passionately obsessed people.
10.) Inside was a large sandy courtyard, ringed with low wooden buildings, large aviaries, and cages.
