Thanks Ralph
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 Brits, 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, Newfoundland and Labrador Dept. Of Mines and Resources in St John's
reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in NE Canada , Jack Lucknow, a
self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely fuck all. Jack has
therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Canada had already gone wireless."
Just makes you bloody proud to be Canadian
