Worldlines to Albin Zak:
HOW DOES THIS WORK? In human society there are between Albin Zak and you and most everybody else 6 or fewer degrees of separation. Human society is a small world network.
THE MATRIX is a small world network too. Within it — via worldlines which branch and spread like the world-girdling arboreal canopy of a rainforest risen in Bahia — Albin Zak is in potential reach of almost every human being on earth.
Who's taking you???
