Theresa, the way I figure it, everything we've ever read, every movie we've ever seen, every story we've ever heard (sounds like a Police song, doesn't it?) well, it all goes into the brain pot, like that ol' stone soup, gets mixed and stewed, and somewhere along the way it resurfaces, renewed (though not totally new) via our imagination. Guess one could also argue that, given our limited human experience, there's bound to be more than one person on the planet coming up with the same idea. Yeah, sure makes ya do a Caramilk bit of wondering!
