Surfing nuns break vow of silence

I thought this was funny :)

The practice of devout nuns keeping a vow of silence does not extend online, according to a Sicilian convent.
Twelve cloistered nuns at the 13th century Santo Spirito convent in Agrigento, Sicily have begun to answer enquiries sent to their website.
While they are held to a vow of silence in everyday life, they have been dispensing advice on their lifestyle to interested parties and keeping in touch with other Cistercian nuns in France and America.
Sister Maria at the Santo Spirito convent said that the website had been set up to gather prayers and to share the nuns' mission with the world.
