Want to let Bob Harrison know that I liked his informative
reply.

Noting in recent months even National Geographic Magazine
has published articles on the high loss of honeybee
colonies nationwide and the shortage of bees for
pollenation of some of our countries food crops now
appearing, to the detriment of speciality crop farmers (not
that the almonds couldn't use more bees also)..............


It would appear to me that if the USDA with our bee lab's
help can teach fire departments to put down bees with
hoses, etc ......

Then they can also teach proper uprighting of loads to
lessen impact, salvage our farm animals, save expensive
woodenware, and help to keep this country's crops
pollenated for farmer's impacted, not just the beekeepers.

So when does this next training begin with information put
out to industry in general,to include in texts like ABJ,
and ABC and XYC of Bee Culture, or has it already.

Basically if bees can be taught to be put down, then they
can be taught to be saved also somewhere in our schooling
system.
