Jerry,
You mean 89 mg., not 0.89 mg!

Getting such an "average" weight is like asking "What is the weight of an
average man?", and I am sure that you would get a different answer from a
Japanese doctor
than an American doctor.

Speaking for myself, for many years package beekeepers have defined a pound
of bees as 3500, which equals about 130 mg./bee.  That is good enough for me.

Sometimes I think people ask TOO much of we scientists; and then get
frustrated when we can't give them a one word answer.

Miss seeing you!

George Imirie
