Bobby, you are right -- it really is pretty easy to credit sources, but you still have to fill the space in around the long block quotes (although judging by my latest batch of papers, not with very much).<BR/><BR/>And I have written a couple of Wikipedia entries, so perhaps I am being plagiarized after all!C.

I never understand why students do that because it is a simple task to attribute the source. I may have said it before, but one professor I knew in undergrad hangs a small plastic skeleton outside her office from a string with a sign on it that says, "Plagiarizers".Bobby Kuechenmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04990962978897963228noreply@blogger.com
