14. Dear Herald,
Oh no! I've found great information but lost all the information that tells me where I got it. I've already put the info in my paper, but now I don't know what to use for a PR or bibliography. What should I do? -Desperate, Polly

O A. No problem, Polly. Just use bibliographic information from the Pontikis site. He's written lots of stuff on the gods so your information is sure to be on his site, in some form. Put Pontikis in your PR, too. Dr. Questad and Mrs. Schmidt will never know the difference.
O. B. Polly, if you can't find the information, even after entering some of the text on a Google search, take it out. If Dr. Questad and Mrs. Schmidt see that the website address you give in your bibliography doesn't match up with your information, you'll get a zero for plagiarizing. Oh, and Dr. Questad thinks it's fun to check all that kind of stuff. So, get rid of undocumented information. Better to get some credit for you paper than none at all. - Faithfully Yours, Harold

15. Dear Herald, I'm wondering how to tell what I PR and what I don't. Can you help me? Worried, Wendie
O A. Yes I can help you, Wendie. Every time you quote or paraphrase put a PR at the end.
O B. I'll help! Wendie, all you have to do to make sure you get in no trouble at all is to put a PR after every single sentence!
