Yes, I can relate to that. It gives one an anxious feeling if there's only a murmur of not having correctly referenced material. It also has to do with integrity of course. But it's strange; you can get the same weird feeling of 'guilt' one sometimes get's when seeing a police-man..........' did I do something wrong?'.
