An interesting case study in plagiarism detection is an article I reviewed a few hours ago.  It contained what looks, for all the world, like a deliberate attempt to slip plagiarism past the review process.  How did I detect it?  Peculiarities of the article triggered my instincts to look more closely, causing me to search for key words and phrases on the web, and find copyvio/plagiarism of an article not listed as a source.

After the stern lecture I gave Tempo, not so long ago, about lies damn lies and statistics, I'm not likely to put too much stock in googlefight --- but I concede it'll be interesting to see what happens, especially since even if *I* don't put much stock in it, I'm pretty sure Tempo does.
