In some medieval Irish Monastery, the monks were busily saving civilization by copying those surviving documents of learning. A youngish monk who had been on the job a mere year or so approached the Abbott:

“Father, I notice that we make several copies of everything”.

“But of course”, replied the Abbott. “Heaven Forbid that God’s Creatures should ever have but one surviving document again”.

“I understand that Father, but I also note that we copy the copies. Now if we made a mistake to start with, would we not be making the same mistake over and over again?”

“I never thought of that. I’ll check it out.”

Three dqays later they found the Abbot crying his eyes out. The original document said “celebrate”.
