catgate Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 After having dug to a depth of 1000 meters last year, Scottish scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 1000 years ago.Not to be outdone by the Scots, in the weeks that followed, English scientists dug to a depth of 2000 meters and shortly after headlines in the newspapers read; English archaeologists have found traces of 2000 year old fibre-optic cable and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the Scots.One week later, Irish newspapers reported the following; After digging as deep as 5000 meters in a bog, Irish scientists have found absolutely nothing. They therefore conclude, that 5000 years ago, it's inhabitants were already using wireless technology!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandalph Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 It's a well known fact catgate that copper wire was invented by two Scots arguing over a penny. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
