By starting a topic to ask for a disprovement experience/fact here would be a bit of a oxymoronic.

Those who participated in LYN webforum, most probably are well-connected via the internet social networking. Hence they are "unsuited" to be the 1st degree. But there might be chance they KNOW someone who are ultra-isolated, making that particular individual as 1st degree, and them as 2nd degree. Maybe there's a tiny chance you'll get what you wanted there

of course less than six still holds. its a no brainer. Doesn't merit an in-depth discussion on its on.

There are many examples which are more than 6.

degree 1: a hermit, orphaned since birth, decides to go live in the jungle/mountains away from society
...
degree n (n>6): another hermit, orphaned since birth, decides to go live in another jungle from another side of the world.

there is NO CHALLENGE in thinking of the various examples which disprove/broke the 6-degree rule.since its a thought experiment, simply think of the MOST LOGICAL case of 2 humans on earth who are least connected to the rest of the world/humans. I bet you can provide dozens more examples. same goes for other members too.

You're overtaxing your brain. You seem like discussing for the sake of discussing. zero degree? what do you actually mean by zero degree
? Are you trying to prolong the discussion by introducing extra element which actually doesn't fit in?

between a human and another related human.. already 1 degree-chaining. What is your understanding of "zero degree" in this context? a human and his own soul ? a human vs his alter ego? a angel side of human vs his devil side?

a bit more.

ZERO degree means a human with no connection whatsoever. Possible but not alive for long.

As soon a human is born, the only way to reduce his connection would be. the mom died during childbirth, the dad died earlier. That disconnect the baby from almost everyone. For a zero-degree human, highly unprobable he'll make it to childhood, unless he's being cared by lets say another relative or friend or another human, we call X. hence X shall be that baby/human's 1st degree already.
