"H.B. Halicki began working at a local gas station in Gardena, California. He started collecting cars at the age of 16, eventually ranging his collection from 1920s classics to lowriders and Ferraris.

By 17, Halicki owned and operated his own auto body shop. At 17 and still in High School, he signed a contract with an insurance company to detail and do minor repairs on 2,000 new cars at $25.00 a piece. With business partner Ron Light, the following year they bought a tire store. Aged 21, with business partner J.C. Agajanian Jr they owned and operated an auto salvage company. Halicki also enrolled in real estate classes and began investing in commercial properties, which led to numerous land holdings and a successful junkyard business."

"Stephen Dolan, a student at Trinity College Dublin, applied graph theory to work out the "closeness" of an article in Wikipedia as its average distance to any other article, to find the "center" of Wikipedia, that is, the article that is closest to all other articles (has minimum closeness), and to find out the shortest route between any two articles. As of 2008, the center of Wikipedia is 2007. From that article, it takes on average 3.45 clicks to get to any of the 2,111,479 articles reachable from it. Disregarding all of the articles that are just lists, years or days of the year, the "real article" closest to the center is United Kingdom, at an average of 3.67 clicks to anywhere else."
