Hi LXers,

I just wanted to drop by and let you know that this article has been removed from The Powerbase. The author, Pedro Mateus, plaguerized this work. At The Powerbase, we are committed to delivering only original content, and that how things will stay.

Thanks LXers!

Quoting:plaguerized


EIC, I use Chrome, which has pretty good dictionary/spell checker. It didn't find plaguerized[sic] but found and suggested plagiarized! I suggest using it.

One more suggestion, how about linking to the article the author plagiarized?

i did a search for some phrases in the header and article (1st page pulled from google cache) and found nothing. perhaps the original is from a print magazine (those still exist? :-) or translated from another language.

greetings, eMBee.

I think you can find those on high speed rail trains. They can't just hire anybody, you know. They need super conductors.

The cars on that train are clown cars.

And Victor Borge, the Clown Prince, is their super conductor.
