INK the colored liquid used for printing and writing. It is the most important liquid used in sending messages. Without ink do you think we'll be able to to know the World's History? The past, your genealogy or your family tree? The beginning of time and when life originates? we can somehow learned our history through word of mouth form our ancestors down to the generation of today. But who can able to relate the vast of informations through show and tell, and by talking out loud? No one has a brain as big as computer with a capacity and volume of more than 200 gigabytes. It's impossible right? Even robots don't have that kind of program.
