After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, German
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 Gerries, in the weeks that followed, an
American archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet and, shortly after,
a story was 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 Germans".
One week later, the Council in Teesside , reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in Eston Hills, Jack Lucklow, a
self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely bugger all. Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Britain had
already gone wireless."
Just makes you bloody proud to be British.
