"But getting stung regularly is important to prevent allergy..."

I wonder - is this a fact? What i heard somewhere (could be another one of those old wifes tales in the beekeeping community) is that those stings add up and you could get stung regularly for years and suddenly you get an allergic reaction and you have to start looking for a new hobby/job.

/Mats Andersson, Stockholm Sweden (hoping Allen will confirm that this is a fact)

PS. James - your post about the Jedi thing was about as funny as it gets. I have used this technique and it works (sometimes).  Do bees have eardrums and what happens to them when they get "clapped"? May the force be with you.
