After having dug 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 British, 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, Australia’s Northern Territory Times, reported
the following: “After digging as deep as 30 feet in his backyard in Tennant Creek, Northern
Territory, aboriginal Billi Bunji, a self-taught archaeologist, reported
that he found absolutely F *-all.

Billi has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had
already gone wireless.”…

Makes you bloody proud to be
Australian!
