This time the problem isn't that none are plausible, but that too many are!
I'll guess that it's not related to plagiarism, which means that it
probably is. Maybe it's one of the beachy defs. I'll take 2 and 4.

8 and 11, please.

And while I'm posting, I'd better mention that we'll be away from Saturday 21st to Sunday 29th, and
while there should be wifi, I'll have nothing bigger than a tablet with me, so my appearances may be
only occasional.

Best wishes,
Tim Bourne.

barbarism. I tell you the division is a thread, a sheet of glass."
