Copper Wire - and Kentucky's Scientific Wonders

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, in the weeks that followed, a California
archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a Story in the LA Times read: "California archaeologists, finding of 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 Kentucky reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Melbourne, Ky. Bubba, a
self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has
therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Kentucky had already gone wireless".

Just makes a person proud to live in Kentucky, don't it.
