[quote]In 1967, psychologist Stanley Milgram tested the small–world theory that members of any large group are connected to each other through short paths of intermediate pals. He sent packages to randomly selected folks in Kansas and Nebraska and gave them the address and occupation of a target person in Boston. Participants were allowed to send the package only to someone they knew who might know the target, until it found someone who knew the target personally.
Milgram derived an average of six degrees of separation between any two people in America. You, therefore, are only six handshakes away from George W. Bush.
Actually, you can be just two shakes from Dubya if you meet our political reporter Dennis Carroll, who shook hands with Bush, who said, "Nice to meet you, Dawson."
Milgram's data led to a play by John Guare and eventually to the Kevin Bacon game. Invented by three bored college students after seeing Bacon's flick "Footloose" on TV, it presumes that ol' Kev is connected to nearly every actor in Hollywood. Computer scientists Brett Tjaden and Glenn Wasson then transformed the game into the Oracle of Bacon on the University of Virginia's Web site. [/quote]
Dabney Coleman was in Tootsie w/ Dustin Hoffman.
