This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

hardly my claim to fame
but one of my best mates is one of the inventors of the process by which holograms get printed on banknotes at the same time as the ink (rather than being stuck on afterwards like they used to be). The people in his lab had been trying to work out a way of doing it for ages with no success. In frustration they went down and had a very boozy lunch, gained alcohol fuelled inspiration and scribbled the whole process on the back of a fag packet.
