Dear Murray:
Thank you for a beautifully well written dissertation.  I wish that I would
have the wisdom, the fluidity of language and the ability to express your
opinion on such an important subject as are Varroa mites and their
significance to beekeeping in particular and to humanity in general as you
have.  Ignoring the menace presented by Varroa mites is tantamount to
inviting disaster as you so well put it.
I am so very glad that at least there is one more person in this world of
ours who
has a vision on the potential harm represented by Varroa.
My deepest gratitude goes to you for your insight.
Sincerely.
Dr. Rodriguez
