It\'s friday lets have a laugh !!
After digging to a depth of 100m last year, Russian scientists found
traces
of copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that
their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago.
So as not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists
dug 200m, and headlines in the US newspapers read:
"US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and
have concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech
digital telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians."
One week later, the Irish press reported the following: "After digging
as
deep as 500m, Irish scientists have found absolutely nothing." They have
concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using mobile
phones."
