When digging to a depth of 10 feet last year, British scientists found traces of copper
wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already
had a telephone network more than 150 years ago.
Not to be outdone by the Brit's, in the weeks that followed, an American archaeologist
dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story published in the New York Times:
"American archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded
that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years
earlier than the British".
One week later, the state?s Dept of Minerals and Energy in Perth, Western Australia,
reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in Western Australia?s Pilbara region, Jack Lucknow,
a self-taught Archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely fuck all.
Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had already gone wireless."
Just makes you bloody proud to be Australian.
