I wasn't going to enter this debate...if that's what it's called.
But, since my name was brought up...
I was well received at the Nebraska meeting, and felt I had something
to offer...for both chemical and non-chemical beekeepers. As I said
at the meeting, if you go cold turkey, you're going to lose bees.
