Text Closeness

The text of the article is fairly close to the text of the pictured sign from the Eagle. If I wasn't so busy I'd do some rewriting to avoid accusations of plagiarism. Can someone else maybe step up to the plate?

I don't know which is the chicken and which the egg, but this page has roughly the same diagram showing how to tie baggywrinkle as the one that appears on the Eagle's plaque, albeit with a different text. There are also photos of people tying it.

A Melissa B. has a blog called Baggywrinkle (also here) with photos of the stuff in use.
