Did you misspell "delusional"? Algorithms are "created", not "invented", 
because similar algorithms have been written hundreds of times by hundreds 
of other people (many of whom didn't have time, energy, or the delusions of 
grandeur needed to write about them).

Moreover, virtually all ideas in software have a value of nothing. The only 
thing that has value is how the idea is used - Google has value, map-reduce 
by itself does not. Even the credit typically goes to someone that had 
little to do with the original idea. (Those who claim otherwise typically 
are planning to make money by leaching off of those who build stuff rather 
than "invent" ideas).

Finally, in the rare case that someone is actually looking for an algorithm, 
they'll be looking at credible sources, not unmoderated newgroups. Most 
likely, they'll be looking for a tested and trustworthy implementation in 
their programming language (here, Ada), not some rambling textual 
description. If you have to roll-your-own anyway, you might as well create 
an algorithm tailored to your problem.

P.S. It's amazing that comp.lang.ada has survived this long as an 
unmoderated newsgroup. This is nearly the only place on the internet where 
there is anything sane yet is not moderated. I have to moderate Ada-Comment 
and ARG and ACAA and ... to avoid clouds of junk that comes daily. Not sure 
why most of it never seems to get here (the OP excepted, of course).
