I can certainly second Dick Marrons comment that not all africanized are 
mean as I worked a few Hives in Paraguay w/my hija who has caught a dozen or 
so swarms......none were hot. I didnt need gloves and probably couldve gone 
a significant time w/o veil but didnt push it too much. That isnt to say 
there werent verified reports of terribly ferocious behavior from others.As 
an aside, the bees reminded me of large flys.
