The New Rosetta Stone

Kevin Kelly and his Long Now Foundation have developed a modern day Rosetta stone; a three inch disk made of nickle, with the book of Genesis translated in over 1500 languages. The idea is that, in the future,  people can decipher the languages they do not know by comparing it to the languages they do know. This stuff fascinates me.
