There is this theory out by some philosophers that through 6 people you cna be connect to anyone in the world. For example lets say I know this kid Nick, his family lives in Russia, if his family knows someone in the russian army, and the russian army guy knows the general, the general could know like the Czar of russia, Etc. Its kind of an interesting theory to think about. I dunno if its true but it seems like it could work

Yea I heard that a mad long time ago, but didn't really think it was true. Haven't heard that in a long time.
