Mobile Finland

Just before I go to work, here a short joke I told the guy sitting next to me on the plane back from VON to prove Finnish people are very "mobile".


An American, Mexican and Finnish archeologists meet at a convention and discuss their recent findings. The Mexican proudly says: "we were digging 100...200...300 meters deep when we found something amazing: copper lines". "This must mean the Inca's already had a communication infrastructure". The American responds: "that's nothing! we were digging at a depth of 500 meter (1500 feet I guess he would say) and found remains of a high-tech glassfiber network, proving that our ancestors must have had fast communication networks". The Finn gets up and says: "well, we have been digging extremely deep and every time we have not found anything". "Based on there is nothing us that we can conclude than that we have that a highly sophisticated wireless system was in use early on in Finnish society":-)
