Three archaeology digs:
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet 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, a California archaeologist dug
to a depth of 20 feet and shortly after, a story in an LA newspaper
read: "California archaeologists discover 200 year old copper wire,
they have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced
high-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than the New
Yorkers."
One week later, a local newspaper in Iowa reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Story City,
Iowa, Ole, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found
absolutely nothing. Ole, has therefore concluded that 300 years ago,
Iowa had already gone wireless."
It makes one proud to have lived in the great state of Iowa.
