You May Recognize Me By The Things I've Invented.

Recently someone asked me whether I think I'm a productive member of society. Clearly that person has never interacted with, heard of, benefited from or basked in any of the goods, services, infrastructure and ideas I've had an unassisted hand in inventing.
So in case none of you has been out in public in the past 7 years, here's a quick list of the some of the things that I've fathered:

Peppercorns
Driving Gloves
Bandoliers
Fish Oil Capsules
The 35-hour workweek in France
The Paco Jet
Israeli Couscous
The Ant Hill
The Speedo
Keyrings
The NHL
The punt in wine bottles
