==He should have cited the source of the corrections. Some appear to be lifted directly from my FR post to you.

Specifics???

==Also, I note in one of his corrections he has quoted wholesale, without attribution, from the Darwin Central blog titled “A Look at Creation “Science” — Part IV.”

I was the one who sent him the Darwin Central link he is quoting from. Thus, I’m sure it’s just an oversight on Dr. Pitman’s part. After all, he knows that I sent him the link. And he also knows that the Darwin Central link contains a link that links back to him. So I highly doubt there is any foul play (if that is what you are implying)—GGG

It is a matter of scholarship, not "foul play."

If you cite several paragraphs of someone else's work, you cite that work. And you cite it correctly (which Dr. Pitman did).
