Here on BEE-L, we have regular readings from our latest scientific 'gospels', but it 
pays to compare what these 'gospels' say to what we see out our own window 
every so often.  

It is also worth noting that the beekeepers on the ground and out in the fields can't 
always concur with what respected scientists of our time claim as truth.

response:

I am sorry, but this is flab. In the scientific community there are no "gospels" and no "truth". Scientists overturn each other's findings on a regular basis and expect the next generation to produce a far more detailed rendering of reality than their parents could. I go to presentations several times a week and the pressure there is worse than in a coliseum. If anyone can shoot holes in your argument, they will, and you will go down like a popped balloon in front of everyone.
