Digging to a depth of 1,000 meters last year, French scientists found
traces of copper wire dating back 1,000 years. The French came to the conclusion that their ancestors had a telephone network centuries ago.
Not to be outdone by the French, English scientists dug to a depth of
2,000 meters. Shortly thereafter headlines in the U.K. newspapers read:
"English archeologists have found traces of a 2,000-year-old
fiber-optic cable and have concluded that ancestors had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the French."
One week later, Israeli newspapers reported the following: "After
digging as deep as 5,000 meters in a Jerusalem marketplace, they found absolutely nothing. They thus concluded that 5,000 years ago Jews were using wireless technology."
