Print Is Dead

The Dead Sea Scrolls can be viewed as the very first blog post. They're like the Rosetta Stone that has translated...wait, that's the Rosetta Stone. What the hell are the Dead Sea Scrolls?

From Wikipedia:

The Dead Sea scrolls comprise roughly 825-870 documents, including texts from the Hebrew Bible, discovered between 1947 and 1956 in eleven caves in and around the Wadi Qumran (near the ruins of the ancient settlement of Khirbet Qumran, on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea). The texts are of great religious and historical significance, as they are practically the only known surviving Biblical documents written before CE 100.

"Of great religious and historical significance"? That's like the complete opposite of a blog post. Oh well. Anyway, they're on display in Seattle starting Saturday and you can see these magic scrolls of religious and historic significance at the Pacific Science center for the low low price of twenty shiny things or their equivalent in Woolly Mammoth hides.
