Not knowing what was meant, I searched BEE-L and found find "DWS" only in
three posts, and all from the same writer, with no explanation.  I Googled
for "DVS and bee" and came up empty.  I then made a leap, Googled "DWV and
bee" and got tonnes.

Is DWS something like DWV, or something different?  Does eveybody but me
know what is meant?
