      Do they have some sort of plaque for him there? If so - how old was he when he enrolled?
      I know he was Valedictorian at 16, (people forget he was/is insanely intelligent) but I do *not* know if he was able to take a vacation or if they dropped the age equivalent of a high-school Junior in a *university* and said, "Have fun with all the math!"

      Speaking of (from my previous comment) kudos to you guys on taking on high level Mathematics. I was no slouch (and for a while carried it as part of my dual major) but that was entirely optional for me. I can't even convince people that graphing an equation is a *real* thing and it's not "from one of those off the wall math courses".

    Oh! Fun little trivia for you:
    The line about Kevin Bacon is in reference to the phenomenon that everyone in show business seemingly has a maximum of six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon. There might have even been a website where you could look someone up, and you'd learn how many connections they have that lead to Kevin Bacon.

      Neat. Hacksaw Jim Duggan started in the wrestling company of the town I live in. Also, I’m a close personal friend of Al’s, since that’s what Weird Al calls the group of people who signed up for his e-mail newsletter (CPFOA, for short).
      As for a claim to fame that’s slightly less lame, I e-mailed Al, asking him for permission to use a name I thought of for my parodies (that would imply a connection to him), and he replied and told me I can call myself whatever I want.

      I guess I have a few lame claims to fame.
      My sister's best friend in middle school and their freshman year of high school was Janel Parrish of Pretty Little Liars fame. After Janel dropped out of the public school system to do private tutoring/homeschooling to support her career, they lost touch.
      And my Dad's cousin was the tour bus driver for Neal McCoy but retired about nine years ago.
      And I shook hands with Sam Choy while eating the French Toast at one of his restaurants. It was ok.
      But none of that has made any real difference in my life, aside from meeting Janel a couple of times (with absolutely no clue who she was despite her already being a local celebrity - I remember thinking she was cute but otherwise seemed like a regular person) and going out to dinner with Neal McCoy and his band as a family when they performed at Bay Fest in Hawaii. I can say that Neal McCoy is one of the most genuinely friendly and generous people I have ever met, real salt of the Earth dude.

    FYI-
    Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon or Bacon's Law is a parlor game where players challenge each other to arbitrarily choose an actor and then connect them to another actor via a film that both actors have appeared in together, repeating this process to try to find the shortest path that ultimately leads to prolific American actor Kevin Bacon.
    Hence the I know a guy, who knows a guy, …… knows Keven Bacon.

    The Kevin Bacon thing is a reference to game I used to play all the time called "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" where you gave someone a random celebrity and they had to connect it within six rounds to Kevin Bacon. it's a lot of sun!

    My closest brushes with famous people:
    I introduced *Hugh Masekela* to the stage on Sproul (Biko) Plaza at an anti-apartheid rally at UC Berkeley in 1985/6
    You can almost see me carrying one of the big wood panels across the same plaza as *Richie Havens* sings "Freedom (Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child)" that we'd prefabbed the night before, for assembly into "shanties" at a "shantytown" protest/blockade of the chancellor's office as the after-rally protest action in 1986, and I'm on the front page of the _Daily Cal_ the following morning getting arrested at that protest
    I spoke on behalf of the same anti-apartheid organization at Zellerbach Auditorium between opening act The Looters and headliners *Ladysmith Black Mambazo* in 1986/7
    I bought *Utah Phillips* a drink at the Dovre Club when it was still in the corner of the Women's Building in San Francisco after one of his performances there
    My personal role in each of these encounters is not entirely lame, and all of the individuals involved are the opposite of that. So I feel okay about it.
