That looks like a personal anecdote to me, exactly like what the other guy said. He said "in my country such and such happened". And you're saying "here's an example of such and such happening". EDIT: But now t

The Darwin vs Wallace example is completely different from the Newton vs Leibniz. In both cases, neither stole ideas from the other. However, at least my understanding, is that Newton and Leibniz did the work at the same time, but because
