Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: in german there's a saying "man kennt jeden ueber sechs ecken" it means, you know everyone over six corners, literally!. yes it is amazing! i think it's true, and i also think it's wonderful!. we're all the same, we should love each other!Www@QuestionHome@Com It's provable in a mathematical way, through probability theory!. Think it's called five degrees of separation!. So it's likely that someone I know knows someone who knows someone that you know!. Or something like that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I heard the same saying! I heard it was six people though, but actually, I do believe it!. Many things have happened to me that prove the world is a smaller place then we may think!
