I remember reading an old edition of the XYZ...  that I found in a library;
someone on the list may have a copy. There was an  article, I think with a
photo, describing a hive either in or immediately  outside a woodyard where there
was a serious fire. The hive was apparenly on  fire itself, yet the bees
inside were unharmed. Presumably the entrance faced  away from the flames.
