    Well, if my understanding of what an Editor's job is is correct, then Jimmy had full knowledge of Joe's plagiarism and fully supported it. Numerous times since Joe has plagiarised repeatedly. As Editor, Jimmy must have been aware of and approved of each instance. Hence, pretty hard for Jimmy to defend the charge. Thus....the misdirection of the off-topic post.

    So long Jimmy. Been nice to know ya.

    SO what's your contribution, besides chiming in with your clique? Do you know the website and the history, or what about the content of the article?

    And what's the 914 reference to, as if a 914 Porsche is a comment about someone's character?

    Sheez, talk about a "me too" personality...

    And what have you contributed?
    And what is your problem? One post you quote and you know my personality, well done doctor Freud.

    No one here cares if Jimmy has a Porsche 944, a Tata or a Lamborghini Murciélago. It makes no difference to the fact Mr Hood chucked a massive hissy fit like a 3 year old child not getting his own way in the isles of Woolworths. Did he add the Porsche to increase his credibility? Didn't work.
    Now excuse me if I join the choir of voices asking Jimmy to defend his site against the allegation of plagiarism. It's my "me too" personality shining through.

    I read up on the website, and them as a company. Terrible practices. I will never visit their site, let alone click on their dumb google ads. Resorting to Google's Adsense.. ughh i'm just going to stop now. There's only one person I would be trying to reach with this post, and he is obviously not paying attention anymore.
