  1. "Patent Office Program To Speed Computer Tech" on Patent Office Program To Speed Computer Tech · · Score: 1

    What does this phrase mean?

  2. On the spot essays on Is The Term Paper Dead? · · Score: 1

    My 11th grade English teacher would assign essays every week or two that were due at the end of class. No real possibility of plagiarism there. We never had term papers in science classes, either. My physics and chemistry classes had a term project, but that required lab work & demonstration, so again, no possibility of plagiarism. I don't think the teachers operated this way to eliminate plagiarism, per se, but it just wasn't a real problem. Nobody in college really gives a shit; if you are stupid enough to plagiarize and the TA is actually reading the paper for some reason, then there's a whole honesty policy that kicks in. Depending on the professor, it can actually be quite serious.

  3. Re:Eighteen Percent?! on At Least 25 Million Americans Pirate Movies · · Score: 1

    Actually, I'd say 1 in 3 is a little low. It's probably closer to half.
