This simple theory is that there is a "pool" of ideas, inventions, art, music, etc., available to all. There are certain creative types that more readily access the pool, but it is still available to everyone. Serendipity is the way it is imparted to people. And most frustrating for some, the "gift" can come to one or more people, anywhere in the world, at anytime. The one who has the resources and drive to make the idea known usually is credited for "creating" it. That would explain why a recipient of a gift in say, Europe, presents his "creation", and when the guy in Sioux City hears about it, he punches his couch in frustration saying "I thought of that first!!!" You may have seen or thought of this very theory I'm presenting. Its because I received the idea late or am late in presenting it, or am presenting it from a different part of the world.
