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, Knackers Johnson, a self-taught archaeologist,
reported that he found absolutely f**k-all. Knackers has therefore
concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had already gone wireless."
...Makes ya feel bloody PROUD to be AUSTRALIAN!
Have a GREAT DAY.
