Okay, I was going to stay completely out of this, but this has been something that has been interesting to me for a while. There have been many times when I have seen a very well written, well thought out sentence in the middle of Coadie's regular paragraph (which let's just say may not be up to the same literary standard). Just for fun I would do a little copy and paste of my own into Google and what a surprise...the entire sentence had been lifted from a blog or an article.
Now in Coadie's defense, I will say that this sudden departure in grammatical and literary style serve as a clear signal that said words are indeed written by someone else...I think that's just as good as a parenthetical citation.
Okay, I'll go back to my cubby-hole. I'm just messing with Coadie a little. He is entertaining sometimes, but he does absolutely plagiarize in his posts.
