- German scientists dug 50 meters down in the ground 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 Russian government was not that easily impressed. They
- ordered their own scientists to dig even deeper. 100 meters down the
- Russians found small pieces of glass and they announced that ancient
- Russians 35,000 years ago already had a nation-wide fiber optics network.

- ground, but found absolutely nothing. They happily concluded that the
- native Americans 55,000 years ago had cellular telephones.
