    I had many wonderful ideas that I found out were to my dismay discovered by someone called Adam and Eve many many moons ago......OMG I though ....as I slowly drifted off into the abyss :)

    Yes. Many motorcycle related products. I listed about ten of my ideas in a trade journal called 'Motorcycle Industry Magazine'. Over the next twenty years, many of my ideas were manufactured and marketed.

    No. The money needed to launch these products would be difficult for a little guy to gather.

    All the time.  I used to ponder my ideas but now I just let them go.

    I heard some high end perfumes were made with ingredients from stuff like whale poop so I thought I might try experimenting with skunk poop, polar bear poop cariboo poop and various other creatures' droppings.

    You bet.  When I was a kid I thought shampoo and ketchup bottles were dumb.  I'd ask, why don't they put the cap on the bottom where the ggod stuff is?  Now someone else probably got rich making bottles like that.  Now I'm thinking there has to be a better way to make paint can lids.  We have kitchen canisters that make a lot more sense for keeping paint.  But R and D costs money so first I need to get a million dollars to try my ideas out.
