Walter:
 
This thing between you and NZ keeps periodically popping up here
on the List.
 
Can you provide me/us with a reasoned explanation, that includes some
sort of facts on this issue ?
 
As an aside, do not a number of Canadian Beekeepers import from NZ ?
 
Why do we want to be so unneighborly during this high season
of festive Festivus ?  ( maybe some of the alleged NZ/OZ buggies
might duke it out with our buggies and do the whole lot in, or maybe
we could just export all our buggies to NZ/OZ, oh what the hell, let's
just ship a good sampling of all of our little buggies to Hawaii and see
what develops. )
 
Al,
