WOW!!!!!

I asked "Where is Bee-L?" because I look forward to reading your posts  
when I get up early each morning.  For the past several weeks, there  
has been very few, most days none.  This morning 16 with some, like  
Dick's, still on this thread.  Aaron has been the backbone of this  
list since I joined in the 90's and I appreciate his hard work in the  
background, for the most part.  I agree with Dick's statement above,  
but also with Aaron about excessive quotes.  I met several Bee-L  
members at Apimondia in Vancouver '99 and Dublin '05 and hope to meet  
more at Montreal '19.  If you attend any bee related function/meeting  
add Bee-L to your name-tag.

Thanks again Aaron & All
