Six Degrees

Found out an interesting tidbit yesterday. Right after delivering a lecture on "The Origins and Implementation of the Final Solution", I found out that there is only four degrees of separation between myself and one of the instigators of the Holocaust, Reinhard Heydrich. Apparently my doctoral supervisor's doctoral supervisor was at Bletchley Park during the war, and he knew the Czechoslavakian agents who were being prepared to parachute into Prague and assassinate Heydrich. It is incredible, some of the connections that link people.
