Title: I try again.... Post by: Stephen on August 03, 2001, 04:00:00 AM After digging to a depth of 100m last year, Russian scientists found traces of copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network a thousand years ago.
Not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists dug 200m, and the headlines in the US newspapers read: "U.S. scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital telephones 1000 years earlier than the Russians." One week later, the Irish press reported the following: "After digging as deep as 500m, Irish scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using mobile phones." Title: The Irish are smart . . . .

I am sure my friend Mr. O'Brady would say that's absolutely right! |
