Here's what the plagiarist in question had to say when someone else copied and pasted one of his TO posts:

"Plagiarism at its best! The above posting is what I, Mike Pechner posted on train-orders last night. Its so nice Chad foreword this on NWP net. The Press release came from Steve Page, a friend of mine and the rest is my own research and text! I guess Chad has never heard of taking someone else work and giving it credit. I am assuming he hasn't learned about plagiarism in school."

What is perhaps ironical is that the post which Pechner is attacking above was actually precded by disclaimer making clear it was not the poster's own content: "From a posting on TrainOrders.net:". It didn't credit Pechner, but it didn't try to foist off the material as original. Still Pechner attacks the poster as a plagiarist.

So I find this whole new controversy of Pechner plagiarizing himself more than a little interesting. He should have simply done what the the poster he attacked did and preceded his copied and pasted post with "From a posting of mine on trainorders:"

Instead of trying to deceive us and plagiarize himself.
