six degrees of separation

In an entry from April 23 (I'd link you to it if I had a clue how!) I wrote about Hawthorne - and in a letter from Mom that came yesterday I got to think about this again.

The letter (degree 1) said that she was going to a lecture on May 20 by a professor at Penn State (degree 2) who would be speaking on Hawthorne's (degree 3) use in The Scarlet Letter of an anonymous text called The Salem Belle: a Tale of 1692 that he (the prof) thinks was written by Ebenezer Wheelwright (degree 4), a prosperous merchant from my hometown whom my mom and I believe was the builder of the house my grandparents (degree 5) bought in 1945 and my family (degree 6) moved into in 1974.

Totally cool, huh? And most of this happened without the Internet, where even cooler connections can happen due to the "decreasing friction of distance" as we call it in economic geography.

And speaking of which, I must go study for my last final, on that and other selected topics in economic development. Til tomorrow...WHEN I SHALL BE FREE!!!!!
