South Dakota Ahead of It;s Time

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, a California archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story in the LA Times read: 'California archaeologists, finding traces of 200 year old copper wire, 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 Argus Leader, a local newspaper in Sioux Falls, South
Dakota, reported the following: After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Nunda, South Dakota, Ole Olson, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Ole has therefore concluded
that 300 years ago, South Dakota had already gone wireless.

Thank Heaven's for Ole.

Who said South Dakotans are hicks?
