Copper Wire – Proud To Be Aussie

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 Australian Archaeological Society of Northern Territory’ reported the following:

“After digging down to a depth of 33 feet in the ‘outback’ in 2011, Jack Daniel (Bluey), a self-taught amateur archaeologist, reported that he had found absolutely nothing.
Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had already gone wireless.”

Just makes you proud to be Aussie, doesn’t it?
