Reverse plagiarism

When I was in college many moons ago, reverse plagiarism was fairly popular. It means making up a pertinent quote to fit whatever test essay you were writing and attributing the quote to a famous person.

Hopefully a famous someone the professor wasn’t familiar with. It seems that the folks who were most adept at it are now plying their talents on the Web.
