I think what Rip was pointing out is that although two in eight hundred (to
take an average) is, indeed, less than one or two percent, it is in fact
*much* less -- 0.25 % -- or 1/4 of one percent, and very much less than two
percent.
That leaves everyone wondering if you normally find as much as 18 hives,
which would be two percent, and if this year is, therefore, abnormally low?
