The Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy) is my bible.

Douglas Adams (http://www.douglasadams.com/) is my hero.

By the way, I am a legitimate Solipist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solipsism)

So we're all figments of your imagination?

Well, how can you be so certain we are all here, or this is all happening. How do you know you look the way you look, or see, hear, taste, touch, and smell everything around you. How do we even know we exist?

As far as I am concerned your existence ceases the moment I die.

Does the universe cease to exist if you die? Seeing as it could only be you in existence and it's just your imagination playing tricks on you.

The "universe" does not exist as I percieve it sensually, so for all that I can know it does not currently exist, and therefore will continue to not exist once I die. However, I consider the "universe" differently than I believe you do. The universe to me is everything I can gather through my senses, from bees to super-flares. However, I believe that the there is something beyond what I percieve senually, and therefore I believe my senses to be flawed and faulty. Since there is logically something more than what I can know through my human restrictions, then I cannot believe anything to truly exist.
