Like some of you, I too have been following this story on the plagiarism of the German Defence Minister, Mr. Guttenberg, who has just resigned as a result of the scandal.

My reaction: although it is sad to lose a popular politician, it's fair that his dishonesty should have consequences. It also makes me think about my own work - I must be careful using my references. This is something that has always concerned me. All the more so now.

What's your reaction to the story?
