The Conestoga wagons should be picking their way up a rocky trail in the Appalachians … that's what they were designed to do. Part of my family left WV just before the Civil War broke out to become Quakers in Indiana. They used Connies.

Plagiarism only exists where there is intent. History books be damned, the Wright brothers were not the first to fly. That honor belongs to a Brazilian. However, they DID invent it independently and got the press attention for so-doing.
Samuel Clemens was not the last person to have an intelligent thought, either. I am well-read and recognize many of his quips. However, others may never have read Clemens at all. My wife hasn't. But she is well-versed in the phrasing of Nicholas Sparks whereas, with the exception of passages she has read aloud to me, I am almost totally ignorant of his writing.
