Copper Wire
After having dug to a depth of 10 yards last year, New York
scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came
to the conclusion, that their ancestors already had a telephone
network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed,
California scientists dug to a depth of 20 yards, and
shortly after, headlines in the LA Ti mes newspaper read: 'California
archaeologists have found traces of 200 year old copper wire and have concluded
that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a
hundred years earlier than the New Yorkers.'
One week later, the 'Opelika-Auburn News', a
local newspaper in Alabama, reported the following:
'After digging as deep as 30 yards in cotton fields
near Marvin in Lee County Bubba, a self-taught archaeologist, reported
that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300
years ago, Alabama had already gone wireless.'
