I have heard about the experiment, of course, but didn't know about the dude. He also came up with the 6 degrees of separation. Good movie too.

I'm actually afraid to watch it. The reality of it creeps me out too much.
There is a movie "Six Degrees of Separation (1993)." I liked it.

LOL. Well, I was heartened by the fact that about 33% or so of the people did not torture a unseen stranger possibly to death. That seams accurate to me given people's nature. I had heard of this experiment since college or perhaps earlier so to me, it was more of a heartening thing to find out that about a third of people have some ethical backbone.
