Subject: Zero Degrees of Seperation

Another SPAM email but I thought that the subject is quite interesting
to talk about so, here it is...

http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog/zero-degrees-of-seperation

The Six Degrees of Separation depicts our small world. On average,
everyone on this planet is reachable within six steps. This means that
there are around six people between me and George Bush Jr. for
example. I've read quite a lot of on this matter but I've never really
though about it until today.

One of the things I realized today is that there could be some
shortcuts in the entire process. How many degrees/steps are there
between my and Paris Hilton? Any suggestions? Well, the answer is
zero. Between me and Paris there are no other steps just like between
me and you, the reader. By giving unrestricted access to anyone who is
interested in visiting this website, I unintentionally create a
shortcut. You can leave a comment for this post and I will probably
respond. There is nothing that separates us from communicating.
Welcome to the digital age.

The reason I mentioned Paris Hilton is because I found out that she
has a MySpace account, which brought the entire flow of thoughts
responsible for this post. A few moments later after my initial
discovery and within a few searches on Google, I found dozens of other
celebrities who have MySpace account as well.
