Email I received today and thought I would share it with the rest of y'all!
Copper wire:
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet 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, a
California archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, A
story in the LA Times read: "California archaeologists, finding of 200
year old copper wire, have concluded that their ancestors already had an
advanced high-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than
the New Yorkers."
One week later: A local newspaper in Alabama reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Crossville,
Alabama, Bubba, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Alabama had already gone wireless".
