Israeli Scientists Create Nano-Sized Bible
Israeli scientists have inscribed the entire Hebrew text of the Jewish Bible onto a space less than half the size of grain of sugar.
The nanotechnology experts at the Technion institute in Haifa say the text measures less than 0.5 square millimeter (0.01 square inch) surface. They chose the Jewish Bible to highlight how vast quantities of information can be stored in minimum amounts of space.
“It took us about an hour to etch the 300,000 words of the Bible onto a tiny silicon surface,” Ohad Zohar, the university’s scientific adviser for educational programs, told the Associated Press.
I’m sure they had a darn good reason, but for the life of me, I can’t figure it out. 
 Yeah. lots of info, stored on small thingys. But seriously, why? Kind of hard to turn the pages, don’cha think?
