There's this show on the History Channel that assembles a link between approximately six technological innovations.
Needless to say, its Six Degrees from Keven Bacon, only replaces actors with technological innovations. It Startis with a modern invention, , and ending with Sir Francais Bacon.

However, I think you can link Bacon to any technology in only one step, and I'll tell you what, I'll throw in scientific discovery, or virtually any form of deduction: The Scientific Method.

Yep, although Bacon didnt create the SM, he did concieve one of it's first precursors, The Baconian Method.

*insert virutally anything that'd could have any link to science* -> Scientfic Method -> Baconian Method -> Bake.



Also, an interesting fact. During his life, the Baconion Method was condemned by the Church as Occult. It was due to its use of induction, which is basically experimintation, testing hypothesis, and observation. Taking note of your observations was committing heresy and that is comedy gold.
