How interesting, Last night, I was speaking of my bee interests with a friend. He told me the same story about the "H" bee. I thought that it was silly. Then, I was checking over my volumes of mail and found this reference. I too would like to hear any information regarding these bees. I am reminded of how smart my father is. He taught me to never "Argue in the negative." I was sure my friend was recalling a childhood fantasy. But I did not dispute what he said. And now this, it could be real? I would like to hear any info on this subject. Thanks, M. Chris Michel Poplar Bluff, Mo
