It suddenly crossed my mind

...that Tom Lehrer, being a Real Mathematician, might well have an Erdos number.

A little googling proved that he does indeed, and it's 4. (http://www.oakland.edu/enp/erdpaths/)

This pleases me immeasurably for some reason.

Does he have an Erdos-Bacon number?

Hi Sandra, great to see you again and great to know that you haven't changed a bit!

Does Brian May have an Erdos number too? I like him a lot so I hope so.

Mine's 4, as well.
