   @BartoszMilewski Wow, you have to go back pretty far to a time when Google were capable of holding a ball without dropping it

     My contribution with most citations is the 1999 patent: "Scope testing of documents in a search engine using document to folder mapping." We had the search engine technology before Google, but Microsoft dropped the ball.

     Distant second is 1985: "The structure of ultraviolet divergences in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories." We had supersymmetry figured out, but the Universe dropped the ball.
