Just seen on another site and too good not to share
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, Canadian 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 their neighbours, 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 Canadians".
One week later, the Welsh authorities reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in North Wales, Dai Jones, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely flip all.
Dai has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Wales had already gone wireless
