Robot Arm writes copies of the Luther Bible [Pic].... How times have changed!

I picked up the following story from Boing Boing.
Here's a picture of a robotic arm doing what Monks did way back in the scholastic era - writing copies of the Bible out by hand!
My, how times have changed.... I have often thought of getting my New Testament students to write out the New Testament just to be sure that they are reading it!!!
When I candidated to become a minister we had to read the whole Bible from cover to cover. It was quite a worthwhile experience (except for Numbers...).
For more great images of this 'monkbot' at work (please check out the great font it is writing in) go to the flickr page.
