Sockmonster Posted May 25, 2003 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2003 Wasn't sure where to post this but i read recently that everyone in the world can be connected in just six links e.g. X 's aunties friend's postman once worked with a man who knew someone who lived next door to Y I just fancied doing an experiment to see if it was true - so if anyone wants to see how they are linked to me it would be interesting ( however we are already linked because you will have replied to this post!!!) The book I read it in was pre-internet so I expect that throws the statistic entirely off course..... Just to get you all thinking...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted May 25, 2003 #2 Share Posted May 25, 2003 I believe it's known as the six degrees of separation. It's certainly an interesting theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schadeaux Posted May 26, 2003 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Y'know, Kismit, I do recall that my half stepbrother's cousin's mother's husband's sister inlaw's nephew's dog on his father's side was behind a resturaunt once with Prince Charles' personal polo instructor's mother inlaw's cat! We are almost siblings, Kismit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
