This topic is explored in the Thursday Next series of novels by Jasper Fforde. Really. He's not taken seriously enough for most people to include him in the scifi cannon, but he deserves to be.

The 42 minutes to anywhere idea is covered briefly as well. It's like it's Fforde day. And I'll never complain about Fforde day.

My favorite take on this topic is the novel "Les Animaux dénaturés" by French author Jean Bruller (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Bruller).
