#1: Good Old Copper Wire! Author: Vince, Location: Brisbane AUSTRALIAPosted: Wed Sep 02, 2015 3:04 am ---- 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 British, 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, Australia's Northern Territory Times, reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in his backyard in Tennant Creek, Northern Territory, aboriginal Billi Bunji, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely, bugger-all. Billi, has therefore, concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had already gone wireless."
Makes me feel bloody proud, to be an Australian!

I dug down 10 feet and that was as far I as needed to go to determine that bullshit runs deep.
