Dorset police help recover blind woman's written pages

The woman has a guide of strings to register the rows that she writes. She'd written 26 pages when her son who visits weekly noticed that she'd run out of ink: the pages were blank. They came up with the clever idea of contacting the Dorset police department's fingerprint unit, and in their spare time, using a variety of techniques, were able to recover all the writing from the apparently blank pages.

I think this is pretty awesome. I can't picture a major American police unit helping someone like this.
