Politesub53 -> Its a small world. (6/12/2013 5:38:45 PM)

I was just mentioning this to another poster. It really is a small world.
You have to remember I lived in London where there are 12 million people. I am now 60 and found out yesterday my best mate from my teens and twenties passed away some 9 years ago. It threw me a bit as he was still youngish.
Anyhow, I was telling my mums cousin today and mentioned some old friends...... She gasped and got me to repeat the names. It seems her father, my great uncle, had a sister, who married into my friends family. So my great uncle was also there uncle by marriage.
This got me thinking about something I read not so long back. If you go through just SIX sets of inlaws, you will find you are related to just about everyone. Something Like that, I will try and find the link.
Adds link......... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_separation
