Connected: How Kevin Bacon Cured Cancer

We've all heard of six degrees of separation, the idea that everyone in the world can be connected in just a few steps. But what if those steps don't just relate to people but also to viruses, neurons, proteins and even to fashion trends? What if this six degrees of separation allowed us an insight into the mysteries that lay at the very core of Nature itself?

Very interesting research - well worth watching the video (approx. 1 hour)

"This video can only be viewed in Australia." But it sounded like a great one.

That's disappointing. Most Avalonians are outside Australia.

I found a 2 minute trailer for the video on YouTube - it says at the end:

Australian Premier
ABC - 28th October 2008 (the video was posted 27 Oct 2011)

BBC Horizon - TBA
Discovery Canada - TBA
Science Channel - TBA

It must be out there, somewhere.

Perhaps you could try using a proxy server in Australia, such as:

Proxy address: sydney.cache.telstra.net Port no: 3128

I haven't tried the proxy server because I don't need it - I am in Australia. Good luck.
