Ed Costanza reports a trying experience with aggressive bees and attributes
it to AHB.  I have had similar experiences in England where as far as we know
there are no African Honey Bees.  The answer, if unprotected, is to run like
hell; if protected to close the hive, walk away with dignity, find a dark
place to sit until they have given up and while siting there plan how to
requeen them.
