British Library Posts Really Old Stuff!

In a surprise move, The British Library announced that they took old stuff, scanned it, and put it online for free.  The old stuff, know to the gentle world as "manuscipts" can date back as old as 500 CE (Common Era for my fellow heathens) and as new as 1900 CE (still Common Era, braniac, lay off the pot).  Check it out, the scans really are impressive.

Ironically, there are no good pictures on the British Library's site where they post the manuscripts, so here's a kitty in a tie.

See the old stuff here!
