    Recently Scottish Archaeologists discovered at a depth of 100m, copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came with the conclusion that their ancestors
    already had a telephone network one millennium ago.

    So as not to be outdone, in the weeks to follow, the English dug 200m, and
    headlines in the London newspapers read:

    "English scientists found traces
    of 2000 year old optical fibres and concluded that their ancestors
    already had advanced high-tech digital telephone 1000 years earlier
    than the Scots,"

    One week later the Irish press reported the following: " After having dug as deep as 500 m, the Irish scientists found absolutely nothing and concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using cellular phones.
