IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

It shows a desktop cluttered with a multitude of inventions we take
for granted: optical glass, pencil & paper, a clock, the calendar,
advanced mathematics, batteries, a computer monitor and a cordless
telephone.  Not my desktop, this isn't cluttered enough!

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

I asked many people what the thought the greatest inventions were, and
then used my own ideas.  Getting the idea for framing with a desktop
took me much longer than it should have sitting at my desk.
