My dear friend Bowerick asked me about this and maybe someone can help him out:

Is there a site that lists everyone in the entire universe in alphabetical order?

Bowerick would like to use it for a project he is working on in his spare time - and he has a lot of that since his accident.

This seems very familiar.. Isn't there a plotline in The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy about someone travelling around apologising to the entire universe in alphabetical order, using a time machine iirc?

Edit: Hah, my bad, I thought Bowerick was a HN user Google set me straight!

Good one!

That would be Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged, and his mission was to insult the entire universe, in alphabetical order.
I think you're referring to Bowerick Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged -- an immortal who went about insulting every living being in the universe in alphabetical order :)
