re: #75 SixDegrees

And unfortunately, in my view, Jeff Sharlett seems to be the sole source of information about them. As noted, it strikes me as odd that a group so old and influential has apparently completely escaped everyone’s notice all these decades, and I’d be a lot more comfortable with what he has to say if there were an independent source of confirmation. I’m not “reflexively dismissing” anything, but I do have a long-standing aversion to sole-source material like this.

So you haven’t even glanced at the book, yet feel perfectly comfortable dismissing it out of hand? Gotcha.
