Well this is good to know then Dave, but in the mean time
perhaps you could enlighten us a little more on the subject
matter so it is more openly known, and can be talked about.

As you probably already know I have been watching how much
of this relates in our bees for years, and in observation
hives have watched laying workers for hours on end, with
wings folded like little birds, laying in nice tight brood
patterns just like normal queens; even video taping and
swaping info with local lab for awhile. 

Do your two references by any chance have info on the
workers fighting for dominance to see who gets to lay
perhaps? and outcomes in patterning? Trevor, by the way how
is this being seen on your end?
