Ted, that is a >great idea for some entrepreneur on this list
to create !< I also find veils a pain. Sometimes I'll start without one
and then when I hear the warning  buzzes around my head - I have
to leave quickly & go get it. Perhaps the thing to do is have one about

small [smaller than a bee that is :-) ] holes maybe four or five deep
around the outer edge of the field of vision for ventilation.
