Although it might seem on the surface to be a good idea, this is not something
that is appropriate for BEE-L.

BEE-L is a list for informed discussion of bees and bee  biology, and associated 
matters.  Although we do range considerably farther at times, we try to leave 
specific accusations and legal questions to the legal system and the courts.

General discussion of these topics can be acceptable, as long as it is kept  
factual  -- and general.

BEE-L policy is to strongly discourage suggesting names in connection to 
controversial matters except where the connection is a clear matter of public 
record.
