Yup. I agree that most ideas are not "original" and are composed of pieces from existing ideas.

Like I've said in a thread before about 701's ballista/crossbow style launcher, I got that idea from the human launcher in the "Wipeout Zone" obstacle course on the ABC show "Wipeout," and it wasn't and idea that I came up with all on my own.

There's another reason why the I in FIRST stands for Inspiration.
