Friends,
    I have an unusual request.  Ed Southwick, the bee researcher
who inspired the creation of this list, (and all-around good guy)
is unexpectedly laid-up this summer (just underwent a pancreas
operation). He will be 'out-of-commission' for at least a little while.
     If you know him (and even if you don't)  perhaps you might
consider sending him a card or brief note (sorry, he doesn't get
e-mail at home) to cheer him up and let him know you're thinking
of him.  I'm sure he would like to hear from you. Tell him you're
subscribed to Bee-L.  His address is:
 
                    Ed Southwick
                    20 Timber Trail
                    Brockport, NY 14420
                                   USA
Thanks.  I've come to know that bee people are among the sweetest
in the world.
