COPPER WIRE 

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, 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 Harlan, 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." 

Makes one proud to be an Iowan.
