Her product causes a market explosion AFTER her patent expires. It's all timing.

I don't think it has anything to do with timing, it's not like she was trying to sell computers to the flintstones. Her marketing was obviously not good enough, once other companies got a crack at it they were able to make it to go viral.

Unlikely. Noone can pinpoint exactly the sudden surge. Like most fads, it's a matter of random luck.

Unintended consequences. Who would have thought that Coke would hurt from the shift to online (not that it's not fully understandable once pointed out, but it's not one of the obvious things one would think about. Good lesson here).

Not really. What if the faith of the agency is Judaism?

Hence why I thought it was a slightly interesting topic.

I don't think gays should be allowed to adopt, kids should go to a normal healthy family environment. But parents of any religion should be able to adopt.
