Hi Chris, Jerry and all

The designer told me, via his daughter(translator) at Apimondia in  
Dublin, that another advantage of the hive was that swarming was  
reduced as swarm cells failed due to being upside down several times  
while maturing.  The daughter didn't seem to understand me when I  
asked about supersedure cells.
