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 Brit's, 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 50 years earlier than the British". One week later, the state's Dept of Minerals and Energy in Western Australia , reported the following: "After digging as deep as 30 feet in Western Australia 's Pilbara region, Jack Lucknow, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely f**k all. Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Australia had already gone wireless." Just makes you bloody proud to be Australian.

Oh, it does! It does!

LOL!

:biglaugh: Sounds like a good tale to me.

It certainly does, Cep!! Especially when you consider that WiFi was actually an Aussie invention!

Of course it was, Maddy - according to Jack Lucknow, we've had it for 250 years!

Nice one, Cep!

So........... Telstra was more efficient then???!
