Nick, it’s not convention to lift text almost verbatim from a particular publication (from Fritts76 in this instance) without attribution, or indication that such an act has taken place. A trusting innocent following Bradley’s reference to Fritts71 would notice that, unlike the figures, the captions are different, and might be moved to assume that the rewrite is Bradley’s work, not that of Fritts.

Re: John M (Oct 20 18:39), Hmm. Let me follow this line of logic a bit more. Would not then the relevant standard for quoting and citing be commissioned testimonial reports to the federal Congress of the United States, of which there are millions of examples dating back to the 18th Century?

Nick,

In your increasingly amusing attempts to extricate yourself from the hole of claiming DCs posts were not about plagiarism from Bradley, you just succeeded in trapping yourself. If we go the DC listing of posts that you say explains why you ignored DC’s first post on Wegman, we see how DC describes what you call “the issue” : “Here are pointers to material most relevant to the allegations of plagiarism that were sent to George Mason University by Raymond Bradley last March and April”

I think it is time for you to stop digging.

Does this mean that you accept that the technical details of the two cases are similar, but the intended audience is what counts?

looks like Gavin (if it’s him, seems real) is engaging over at air vent.

good for him & everyone concerned (SM mainly & JC for the courage + all the others) in opening the debate/discussion beyond the academic/MSM defined tribes.
