Leave it to Douglas Adams to pour cold water over the warm fuzzies - but I still like the idea of elves and faeries, no matter what he says.

Oh,what is up with Douglas Adams and garden fairies? He is not a true believer. I forgive him for his non-belief status.
I have had fairies in my garden, I bought them from a true believer at Half-Moon-Bay, CA. They sat on the top of my garden, not the bottom. Geeze, no self respecting fairy would sit at the bottom of the garden.

He should see my little neighbor, she would convince him that only fairies could have helped her make her little garden. How otherwise would new flowers show up overnight?
