Well, I do much the same - I wake up with a new idea.  And cannot say
how it happened - I slept through it.  

To patent something, it is _not_ required that one know how it works,
or even that one's theory be correct.  Many are not. Only the ability
to make it work on request is required.

Fifty years ago, Jacques Hadamard queried his colleagues (like
Einstein, etc) on where their insights came from - they woke up with
the idea, or it just came to them after intense thinking.
