The whole quote is:

"The discussion is about bee breeding and the intent of that breeding 
includes the survival of the bee as well as reproduction and a stable 
population as a consequence. A very harmonious relationship with no 
differing interests."

I added "stable population" as another thing desired by the breeder (as 
well as the bee) that you did not include in your original post..In view 
of the other post on black bees in the UK, I can see where you are 
coming from. You changed the native bee so you are fighting what was 
there before, but I still think your interest for the bee are the same 
as the bee's - survival and reproduction..

We have a blank pallet. We are truly breeding bees that will be stable 
in our areas Those bees would not survive unless we did breed for change 
or let nature do it in time, say a few thousand years minimum.Yours are 
native and stable.
