Shlama Otto,
Yeah, yeah, we know. Why do you think I put this information in this thread? Let me ask you a question - does the palimpsest have the second ending of Mark or it does not? It is a nice story of two spinsters (well, widows) on the quest of some scratched texts. If anyone wants to listen to it here it was.
I beg to differ - listening to this story is not a complete waste of time and I think it might be of interest to some, for example you can learn how you can easily get some honorary university degrees <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s -->. You can also learn about the way some of the manuscripts were found and what was considered a "great find" or who was supposed to be "greatly learned". Or that those sisters were determined and learned Greek, Arabic and Hebrew and added Aramaic to that and made a use of it. It is encouraging. This palimpsest is still the oldest NT manuscript in Syriac, isn't it?
With peace and blessings,
Jerzy
