I am very glad to hear that!  Bee stings are funny things.  I remember a
story in the media from some weeks ago that involved a Texas preacher in
his 80's.  He was stung several hundred times, from killer-domesticate
cross, and that probably would have been enough to do myself in or any
other healthy person.  Somehow this man survived.  His son had to use a
CO2 fire extinguisher to knock the bees down before the perimedics could
get to him.  Pretty amazing.
