Dirty Crook Probability Theory and Viswanathan's Plagiarism Literary Shoplifting Absent-minded Simpleton In Defense of Kaavya Viswanathan Kaavyagate Update Who the Hell Knows? Courtleye Makere Saith Copyinge was withovten Entente I'm going to say she's a dirty crook, because there's no way in hell her books were worth, like, $250,000 apiece, especially if they weren't all hers. Furthermore, it doesn't matter why she copied from that one woman; all that matters is that she did. Otherwise, we'd be standing around, letting convicted murders go free, because they were "really pissed off" when they stabbed that guy with his own ceremonial Mayan dagger. ___ ~ Silvas ~ Buddha promised me Nirvana and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.
