That's a good observation.
Take a peak at the rhetoric of people who contribute to this forum and see if
you notice anything?
You may notice one or two here aping a certain style to the point of
plagiarism?
The funny thing is, plagiarism is encouraged in literary courses, frowned
upon in philosophy courses and deemed outright scandalous in science.
The science tutors' response is social admonition, the philosophy tutors'
response is a fail grade, and the literary tutors response is a jolly well
done.
I am guilty as charged.
Squonk.
