I too, have been following the discussion with interest, but did not
respond to the survey. I am not convinced of the value of the survey, when
the training of each respondant is not known. I have observed a lot of
dancing bees, but have not personally done any serious research on the
subject, so I haven't any credentials here either.
It is a matter of academic interest to me, but, hey, who knows why. Maybe
they dance because they are happy. It sure makes me happy to see a lot of
them dancing.
