Without wanting to detract from your technical feat, I would like to
point out that "Frankenstein" (and "Bride of Frankenstein", "Son of
Frankenstein", etc.) refers to Dr Victor Frankenstein, the book
character who created his monster (which was unnamed in the original
book, at least). Thus it is you, Brad, that is Frankenstein :)
