Sort Of Like A Superhero!

      If any of you are naïve enough to think that this article in anyway exaggerates matters are very sadly mistaken. And if you think the quoted bit on Hamlet just a comedic device, I'd have to say you're just as sadly wrong on that, too. Are things really this bad? Yes, oh yes, they very much are. The idea of being any kind of plagiarism czar in these days is as terrifying any I can think of; a "sick parody of scholarship," indeed.

      Key quote: "Ophelia, 'serviceableness', the true, lost wife of Hamlet, is marked as having a Greek name by that of her brother Laertes." Meh. I've seen-- and regularly see-- much worse. *sigh*
