Difference between Carlin/Hicks and Hicks/Leary ...

Is that while Hicks did similar jokes to Carlin, Leary didn't just do *similar* jokes to Hicks, he did *identical* jokes, told in the same way, using exactly the same words, and the exact same sarcastic whiney voice in the same way at the same point in the routine.

He didn't even have the decency to wait until Hicks was brown bread before robbing his routine.
