It's not enough to come up with a good idea;
you have to come up with the good idea at the right time.
Many people with a good idea present it too soon,
before anyone is ready to accept it,
and then drop the idea when they meet resistance.
When the world is ready, someone else puts forth the same idea and gets all the credit.
(Worse, nobody will remember that you had it first.)

It's so cold in the house today. I don't know why some days feel colder in here than others, regardless of the temperature outside. Worse, the thermostat is reporting the same temp as always, so it doesn't make any sense. Maybe my body lies.
There's a cold draft in the den. Several years ago a bird hit the double paned Andersen crank-out window in the den and broke the outside pane. I had a glass replacement place in the village replace the glass. I assumed that they'd done a good job because, well, that's what they DO, and there's never been any steam or cloudiness between the panes, but maybe the thermal properties were lost. There's cold rolling off the window, but not that much, not as much as the palpable draft. I can't figure it out.
Maybe someday when I get the stacks of crap away from the outside wall I'll find a racoon-sized hole in the wall and the mystery will be solved.
