Actually not. I have my real idea, facts, data and all materials that support my point for a passage. I am just doing an experiment to see if I could find the line by myself. Let me ask you a question, imagine you are living in late 19th and early 20th century as a columnist and you have a secretary. You tell her your idea orally everyday and she typed down your words and revised them to be a column. Not only typing and revising, she even double checked the correctness of all references you mentioned and used in your passage as you indicated.

How do you think the ownership of these passages? Created by yourself or both of you? In what degree you would consider the line between you and her efforts?

Great. I have some thoughts and insights go alone this topic and I’m going to write it down to discuss this issue in detail. Thank you for your initial response.
