Ancient Indian Communication ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ After digging to a depth of 100m last year, Russian scientists found traces of copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago. So as not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists dug 200m, and headlines in the US newspapers read: "US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibbers, and have concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians." One week later, the Indian press reported the following:"After digging as deep as 500m, Indian scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago,their ancestors were already using mobile phones."
