I did that once, as I fail to see why copying and pasting some maths and science here not in the quotes makes the argument any less compelling. Even though the fact I did this seemed to be of more significance than the content, if I recall. Was years ago. I later made the point that very little of what anyone writes is original, we all likely learnt the same basics when at university or college, and are copying from our memories as we share them with people.

Wow... either you're being completely disingenuous, or totally naive about plagiarism - and the latter seems unlikely, given your lengthy forum experience.

I have my suspicions you plagiarized the part "and the latter seems unlikely" of that sentence. Google search shows that someone said it on twitter before you. How very dare you.
