After digging to a depth of ten 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,
California scientists dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after,
headlines in the LA Times newspaper read: 'California archaeologists
have found traces of 200 year old copper wire and 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 Morning Advocate', a local newspaper in Lafayette
reported the following:

After digging as deep as 30 feet in rice fields near Forked Island,
Boudreaux, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found
absolutely nothing.

Boudreaux has therefore concluded that 300 years ago...Louisiana had
already gone wireless!'
