If I've completely missed the point of this thread, nothing original there!

I think WordBind has posed a question that we musn't just ignore. what we seem to have here is two disparate threads. the one, and the one to which she alludes, has to do with creativity, not something with which everyone is blessed. the other, certainly more pedestrian, thread (more like a skein, actually) deals with the everyday flow of thoughts, in which we might occasionally pause and think: now that's an original thought. but of course it's nothing new, under the sun.

...I think.
