Ladies and Gentlemen,
I was amazed yesterday to read that my message sent on
Friday, 8th December, diected personally, and received personally, to Mr
Dick had been sent by him to the complete Bee-L on Sunday 10th Dec.
Incidently.I have received 1 letter of reprimand and several concurring with
my views.
.
This letter was in answer to scathing comments from Allen Dick on
several occasions regarding our postings on Bee-L.
When David queried him once before, his comments were that we only
want Academics and Scientists on Bee-L and that any one else can go hang. We
are on the information highway, and in my view if we see a hitchhiker, we
should pick them up and give them a ride, not run over them.
When I was a child growing up in England, a very kind Gentlemen
taught me beekeeping and it has set me in good stead, but these days few
people seem to want to help new beekeepers. If they are not given help and
advice, how will they learn and how will the industry progress. The man in
CA who recently posted that he had just tasted the first honey from his
first frame should have been greatly encouraged, but I bet few even gave him
another thought.
So, I apologise to the list on Mr Dick's behalf for involving the
whole list on a purely personal matter.
Yours sincerely,
Jean Eyre.
