follow-up: plagiarism lawsuit

Back in January, I posted about Sophia Stewart's lawsuit against the Wachowski brothers, in which she claimed they had stolen the idea for The Matrix from her. A community college newspaper incorrectly reported that she had won her suit, and the story spread like wildfire.

For an update of the lawsuit's current status, and some thoughts on why the story of her lawsuit's success was so appealing, see this recent article in the LA Times.
