German scientists dug 50 meters underground and
discovered small pieces of copper. After studying
these pieces for a long time, Germany announced
that the ancient Germans 25,000 years ago had a
nation-wide telephone network.

Naturally, the British government was not that
easily impressed. They ordered their own
scientists to dig even deeper. 100 meters down,
they found small pieces of glass, and they soon
announced that the ancient Brits 35,000 years ago
already had a nation-wide fibre net.

Israeli scientists were outraged. They dug 50, 100
and 200 meters underground, but found absolutely
nothing...

They concluded that the ancient Hebrews 55,000
years ago had cellular telephones.
