Technologically advanced hillbillies
Posted: Fri Jun 18, 2010 12:27 pmAfter 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 L. A. Times read: California archaeologists, finding traces 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, The Charleston Gazette, a local newspaper in Charleston, W.V. reported the following: After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Possum Hollow, Bubba Brown, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, W.V. had already gone wireless.
Just makes me proud to be from West Virginia!
