    Jesus. This is so much bigger than I had thought. People enchanting the spirits so that they can preemptively take credit for and profit from our work is a serious issue. We should form an action group. We could call ourselves People Against Dead Poets Society.

      Can we also add inventions? As a child, I independently came up with the idea of those little sun visor extenders to cover the part of the windshield that’s inexplicably not covered by the regular sun visor. Imagine my horror, years later, to find that some douchebag had stolen the idea way back in the 60’s or 70’s before I was even born.
