Copper Wire
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, New York
scientists found traces of a copper-wire system dating back 100 years,
and they came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a
telephone network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone by New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed,
California scientists dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after,
headlines in the LA Times newspaper read: ' California archaeologists
have found traces of 200 year old copper-wire system 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 Redneck Rebel Gazette' in West Virginia
reported the following: After digging as deep as 30 feet in a corn
field, Bubba Ray Johnson, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that
he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded
that 300 years ago, West Virginia had already gone wireless.
