The number of neurons in the human brain (male and
female) is roughly 900 billion.
The number of neurons in the female worker bee
is about 1 million.
The number of neurons in the male bee is
more than 3 million.
Possible ramifications:
-Women (bees) *ARE* better at multitasking.
-Male (humans) have not been provided with
sufficient extra neurons to compensate for....
-Male (bees) have a lot more time and equipment
to contemplate their navels (or lack thereof).
