research - we published a paper in SCIENCE in 1985 of a very successful
study conducted with a large group of beekeepers (researchers) from the
Seattle/Tacoma area. However, few researchers have the resources or are
willing to take the economic risk that Dee Lusby has. Most of us, like
you, need to get paid and try to avoid bankruptcy. >>
Jerry,
A few of us amateurs on the eastern side of the Atlantic have been discussing
on and off how we can conduct or take part in research in a way that would be
useful, scientific and be taken seriously by the professionals. Can you
offer any guidance?
