Proud to be from Arizona

After 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 LA 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 Yuma Daily Sun reported the following: After digging as deep as 30 feet in the desert near Wellton , AZ , Pedro Gonzales, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Pedro has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Arizona had already gone wireless.


Just makes me proud to have been born in Arizona!

Maybe Arizona had a law against burying copper 300 years ago.
