    A French, a German, and a Russian archeologist all got together to compare their findings.

    The French archeologist went first. “We dug down one hundred feet and found bits of copper,” he declared, “and from this we have concluded that a thousand years ago France had internet via telephone wire!”

    “That is nothing!” exclaimed the German. “In Germany, we dug down two hundred feet and found bits of glass, and from this we have concluded that two thousand years ago Germans had fiber-optic internet!”

    “You are both charlatans!” bellowed the Russian, “And what’s more your cultures are inferior! Behold! We Russians dug down three hundred feet and discovered absolutely nothing, and from this we can conclusively prove that three thousand years ago Russia had WiFi!”
