Hi Bob & all

Preliminary results from a study of the antibiotic properties of  
various samples of Ontario honey shows that while honey from some  
floral sources are better than others,  samples of heated honey were  
not as good as unheated samples.  This study is financed , in part,  
by the Ontario Beekeepers Association.  While my source is well  
connected, and I know the researcher, my talk, as Bob says, is  
cheap.  Hopefully the final report will be available in the near future.
