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 Brits, 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 100 years earlier than the British".
One week later, the Mexican Department of Agriculture reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet near Mexico City, Jose Sanchez, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing.
Jose therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Mexico had already gone wireless."
