Now fellas, allow me to play dolphins' advocate here:

For the record, the earliest video on YouTube about bubble rings is 15  
years old and clearly shows that my clients, the dolphins have  
priority here and were the first to render said invention into practice.

This is further evidenced by my clients' exhibiting similar behavior  
in the wild.

Therefore my clients, the dolphins demand that you cease and desist  
this notion that you humans invented bubble rings. Otherwise my  
clients will sue you for a butt-load of mackerel. And trust me, you  
don't want to get sued under the sea because undersea lawsuits suck;  
you get salt in your suit. ;)
