1. Completely compatible with the bees.
2. No chance of contamination.
3. Beeswax is tougher than paraffin.
4. Initial cost is minimal compared to longevity.
5. If you even ever MIGHT want to produce 
     organic, you are all set. (higher sales price 
     for honey)
... It smells nicer. (not counting this, but it's true)
