After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, French 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 French: in the weeks that followed, American archaeologists dug to a depth of 20 feet before finding traces of copper wire. Shortly afterwards, they published an article in the New York Times saying : “American archaeologists, having found 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 French.”
A few weeks later, The Dorset Archaeological Society reported the following: “After digging down to a depth of 33 feet in the Eype area of West Dorset in 2011, Bert Gurney, a self-taught amateur archaeologist, reported that he had found absolutely nothing. Charlie has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Britain had already gone wireless.”

Now that’s the sort of news that all the tabloids never gather ~ and missed out on then Damon?
Love it, nothing like a good chuckle first thing in the morning, eh?
Amazing Find
Now that is amazing! What a great read, and as said before me, something you wouldn’t read about in the tabloids, let’s face it if they did, they probably would totally misinform us anyway. Great site.
