I read a few of these, but the one I related to the most was the essay about plagiarism.  I think it’s true, most of are do plagiarize.  Sometimes it’s without noticing and meaning to.  I felt bad for the person at the beginning of the essay, the one that almost published a novel until other people realized the author took passages from other authors.  I do believe that it can be an accident to plagiarize.  Some people do it unconsciously.  I believe that a person could hear a story when they were little and then recreate the story without realizing that they’ve heard it before.  We all use idioms and cliches, which I guess could be some form of plagiarism too..they’re not our own words.
