I never collaborated with Paul Erdos, so my Erdos number is 2, not 1. Once I asked him a question and he soon provided me with an answer, and said to me "Let's write it up as a joint paper." I said "But Paul, you did all the work, I just asked the question," and I declined the opportunity. He was a very generous person. H. Wilf, 11/1/2006
