Ed Southwick was the founder of BEE-L. He worked at SUNY Brockport. He was
the creator of BEE-L, which was always hosted at SUNY Albany, which had the
big iron at the time to host the list ([log in to unmask]).
Ed passed in the early 90s (it's in the archives). Larry Krengle asked
within the past day or two, "Where was BEE-L in 1984?" I believe, but I did
not check, that BEE-L was created in 1984. BEE-L was not archived until
1987, so I don't think the early days can be verified. Regardless, BEE-L is
the longest, continuously running internet presence of a Beekeeping list in
cyberspace. I think Ed had to request of Al Gore for BEE-L to be created at
the University at Albany :-)
Ed was a regular contributor to ABJ. I find it ironic that Ed passed to me
suck a gem that BEE-L is, by virtue of my position at UAlbany, yet Ed and I
never met.
Aaron Morris - What a long strange trip it's been.
