To Jerry Bromenshek, Hi,

Do you know where and how scientists first got the idea to try and train
honeybees, instead of dogs, to sniff explosives in mine-fields?

I have often wondered whether Wenner's inadvertent rediscovery (published in
1971, and  later repeatedly stressed throughout his publications against the
honeybee DL hypothesis),  that, contrary to v. Frisch, honeybees had an
exceptionally high sensitivity to odors, might have contributed to that?
