    P.L.A.G.I.A.R.I.S.M.

    On the evidence presented in the letters here so far, the word "plagiarism" presents an enormous spelling challenge to many otherwise informed Americans. One wonders how much import an issue will have if most can't spell it, let alone define it precisely.

    Hint to the spelling-challenged: start using Firefox. It will spell-check the text you type into forms as you go.
