A: I use an Idea Siphon to extract them from the environment, essentially pulling them out of thin air (most big entertainment studios have similar equipment). The siphons are quite expensive - even small models like the one pictured here - but these days you can often acquire them second hand from failed dot-companies. If you're lucky you might even find one in a junkyard that can be fixed up into useable condition. This requires a little technical knowledge, but the basic principles are really not all that complicated.
What's that you say? You're not familiar with the workings of an idea siphon? Well, that's no problem. Just follow the arrow and I'll explain.
