The impossibility of "original sin"

This seriously happens to me every single time. When I was in college I invented the optical mouse. True story. I then found the first one I had ever seen on a bench at college the very next day. I had never heard of it before. A couple of years ago I invented a way to use the fingerprint scanner strip on laptops for scrolling. But this time I knew better and I looked it up. Simpson’s did it!
