Hey Herb:  Tell Jerry not to count on the post office to care for bees.  He
should go to the post office, tell them to telephone him immediately upon
receipt and HE should GO TO THE P.O. and pick them up.  He can also explain to
the P.O. people the value of bees to human ecology, and how they can EASILY
protect them from transit death.  Get the Post Office people on the BEEKEEPERS
side by taking them some honey to use at their lunch table.  Public
