Interesting that all the discussion about cell size leaves out the 
important fact that there are different bees in different areas and you 
will find differences in cell size between bee races and even within the 
race in different climates. So to try and compare the brood cell size 
and uniformity of one race of bees with another and also between 
different areas or countries, is not too scientific. Gotta control those 
variables.

So everyone might be right, just they are examining a different part of 
the elephant and coming to the wrong conclusion from what they see.

BTW, my Maine bees are really into wax topiary.
