After digging to a depth of 100 metres last year,
Russian scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years, and

came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone

So, not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed,

American scientists dug 200 metres and headlines in the US papers read:

"US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have

concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital

telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians."

One week later, the Kenyan newspapers reported the

following:


"After digging as deep as 500 metres, Kenyan scientists have found

absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their

ancestors were already using wireless technology .
