Oh, possibly.  I was mostly just delighted to be alive and benefiting
from a (er...) full six hours of sleep, and thus having fun.

My small kernel of serious content is that, if you frame your warning as
being against "substantive literal copying without citation", then you
imply, among other things, that substantive copying without citation is
OK as long as it's non-literal.  Was that your intent?
