Well, ok I am a new beekeeper in my second year and I don't really need the list because I already know everything there is to know about beekeeping.  However, I will be staying around because my understanding is that in another year I'll realize I know nothing and will really need Bee-L again ;)

I was thinking about the macerated bee conundrum and it seems to me the next experiment is to do the same thing with some number of hives, but on an individual basis, so each hive gets only the bee "extracts" from it's own 50 bees, to eliminate the possibility that aspect of gastric juices or bodily fluids is toxic to the bees at a certain level....  There are so many variables...  Hopefully we'll get some more details as Randy has a chance to look at things other than swarm cells and nucs... 

Mark
