Following a brief search, the email given does appear to belong to a domain owned by the Daily Telegraph, see the paper's contacts page here. That's for those of you who wonder about the credentials of alex10.
From a quick search of the Telegraph website and Google, I am fairly confident that "alex10" is Alex Devine. Note that the book referred to on this site also has an interest in education.
Now that I'm sure who I'm talking to, I'll send an email

does cutting a small piece from someones essay and doing that with a lot of essays to eventually build a super essay count as plagarism ?

yeah thats what i thought
but when u think about it this way
like if u get pieces from different essays and make one super essay its probably a unique one and has not been copied since there is no other essay.
then you think that if you pick up on an idea you want to convey in the exam it could be the exact same one as another guys. and seeing you didn't copy it but made it up from your own intellectual mind that would hardly be called plagarism.
its like the guy who made up the alphabet gonna sue the whole world for writing that letter in an essay
