James you do seem overly concerned about what others have and havn't done.
Who invented the telephne was it Alexander Graham Bell, Grafton, Manzetti, Bourseul, Philipp Reis or Meucci ? Each of them thought they were the one to have thought of the idea.
And that is what seems such a waste of your venom, I didn't mean I was the only or even the first all I said was i had thought these things up by myself and the chances of no other person on the planet having had the same or similar thoughts is ridiculous of course they had. I did not know about the builders and neither did Doc Martens so come on chill a bit will you, at least I opnely shared the info (and have previously) to keep a helpful idea in the dark does no one any good least of all the person who "invented the idea"
If you would post your contact details, website or even e-mail people might find your angst easier to understand but to hide behind a wall and throw stones doesn't lend itself to people understanding you
