After having dug to a depth of 10 yards 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,
California scientists dug to a depth of 20 yards, and shortly after,
headlines in the LA Times newspaper read: 'California archaeologists
have found traces of 200 year old copper wire 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 " The Valdosta Daily Times ", a local newspaper
in Georgia, reported the following:
'After digging as deep as 30 yards in cotton fields near Adel in
Cook County, Bubba Johnson, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that
he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years
ago,Georgia had already gone wireless.' _________________ "warm winds blowin, heat and blue skies, and a road that goes forever"
