Um, cool
If I understand,
You are trying to allow for:
Eureka! = as in the sudden realizaton of how to determine if the crown was pure gold. Making the connection between two seemingly unrelated concepts.
Serindipty = as in the realization that microwaves melted the chocolate in the engineres pocket. Making the connection between cause and effect
Good hard plodding work = As in the cure for cancer. Trial and error, Observing Cause and Effect, and Eurika!
That sounds like one sweet challenge. Hmm, I sound like the mouse who said soneone should put a bell arround the neck of the cat.
