> As to my supposed ignorance of bee behavior, myPh.D. is in insect ethology, with a minor in Biochemistry and significant populationand community ecology expertise.
Honestly, it was never my intention to suggest that anyone was ignorant nor uneducated.
Most of what I have cited is recent work and viewpoints of ethologists and entomologists, not my own opinions. I try to keep my opinions to myself.
Thanks for your contributions, certainly many people have been educated by this discussion.
