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, an
archaeologist in California dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly
after wards, headlines in the LA Times ?read: 'California archaeologists
have found traces of 200-year-old copper wire and 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 Greenville News, a local newspaper in South
Carolina, reported the following: 'After digging as deep as 30 feet in his
pasture near Travelers Rest in Greenville County, South Carolina, Bubba
Mitchell, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely
nothing. Bubba has, therefore, concluded that 300 years ago, South Carolina
had already gone wireless.
 
You better hope that your walls are curved.
The hounds know all about wireless.
 
Actually, if you think about it, Greg has a point. Communication replication without wires WAS used long before wired transmissions (think smoke signals, One if by Land, Two if by sea ... for humans and wolf howls).
