The reference "So long and thanks for all the fish" is to the title of
a novel by Douglas Adams in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
series. That quote is what the Dolphins said before they left earth in
the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. They were listed as the second
smartest beings on the planet next to mice. So I figure the dolphins
would be upset to have Carly compared to them. :-)
