In school, we were taught that a humidity of "100%" is impossible to attain,
because at that level, the water will condense out of the air spontaneously.


Well, now we can see what that looks like - seeing is believing:

The question for beekeepers in all this end-times apocalyptic weather is:

Will the bees continue to fan air, in an attempt to evaporate nectar, even
though this effort can only make the nectar MORE dilute?

My guess is, having no experience with such unusual conditions, the bees
will fan, and not work out that they should stop until the humidity goes
down.
Fermentation in the comb of entire crops could result, not fun.

This is not, to my knowledge, the result of any list-owner configuration
variable setting.  
But I have not done any work on any recent revisions, ever since L-Soft
started hosting the list, as they clearly did the techy work on their own
server.  This left Aaron and I with nothing "technical" but the annoying
"SMTP bounce loops".
