[QUOTE="trucker, post: 61301"] A new monk arrived at the monastery. He was assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He noticed, however, that they were copying copies, instead of copying the original books. So,the new monk went to the head monk to ask him about this. He pointed out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would becontinued in all of the other copies. The head monk said, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son." So, he went down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original. Hours later, nobody had seen him, so one of the monks went down stairs to look for him. He heard a sobbing coming from the back of the cellar and found the old monk leaning over one of the original books, crying. He asked what was wrong. "The word is 'celebrate'," said the old monk.
