Its a game where, by association, you link anyone in Hollywood to Kevin Bacon, eg:
Antonio Banderas was with Anthony Hopkins in Mask of Zorro
Anthony Hopkins was in Mission: Impossible-2 with Tom Cruise
Tom Cruise was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon
Like that, you can only use it if they starred in the movie together though.

I thought the point was to talk abt people who have actually MET. If you play it your way, of course you can link anyone, as you are demonstrating most admirably.

Yes. 6 Degrees is not about historical tidbits. You have to link any two given people by who they KNOW. I could link any two people by saying "both are human". bam. any two people that have ever exist.
