Andrew - of course I have the money you need to get this car. After all, we work
in Silicon Valley, which is pretty much untouched by the
recession-that-Saint-Alan-says-isn't-a-recession that must be hitting the Portland
area. However I doubt you'd like the interest rate or terms on the loan.
As to the topic to which this posting is at least marginally related - a template
is a guide, that's all. And using someone else's document as a guide to developing
a particular type of document isn't really plagiarism, any more than using the
white space guidelines in a third party book for your own document is plagiarism.
