    The stone is correct. Says “Nothing” right there

    Well, you could argue that computer chips are photolithography and therefore, in some sense, “written in stone”, i guess.

    Stone is nowhere near as permanent as people think it is anyway. I mean look at the Appalachians, they were thought to be once as tall as the Himalayas but they aren’t anymore, and they are much smoother. stone isn’t permanent over long periods of time. But in case you think that’s permanent enough, stone can weather and crack, even completely crumble in timescales comparable to a human lifetime. It’s really not as permanent as people think it is.

      That’s why I always go back in time to write all of my permanent messages into the cosmic microwave background at the start of the universe

      Uh I think you need to visit Egypt, it’s as clear as day stones are pretty damn permanent over long periods of time… far better than most materials.
