Hello All,
I suggest those interested reread Karl Von Frich's  "Bees"(  1950) book (116
pages) and then read "Anatomy of a Controversy"( 1990) by Wenner & Wells
(399 pages).

I think the second book provides the most compelling evidence. I know both
Joe Graham (ABJ editor) & Kim Flottum (Bee Culture editor) read BEE-L. I
know new editions of "The Hive and the Honey Bee" and "ABC XYZ of
Beekeeping" are being worked on.
It is my opinion that Adrian Wenner's research be included as well as Von
Frish's in upcoming editions. I believe *reasonable doubt* has been
established by Adrian Wenner about dance hypothesis alone.

Sincerely,
Bob Harrison
