Re-creation

We invent nothing, truly.  

We borrow and re-create.  

We uncover and discover.  

~ Henry Miller

I agree with Henry Miller on this. I was going to put, "Except for Velcro. Someone invented Velcro." Sorta true except Velcro is a borrow and recreation of sandburs - just as Hamilton is a borrow and recreation of Aaron Burr.
