Do you have any further details on some of the topics at the convention?
Some of them look quite interesting.  Most notably:
     -SHB problems are much worse in hives treated with grease patties

I know of no one in our area of ohio that has SHB, but it has been found
in Ohio, so this could be of great concern as many beekeepers in my
area use grease or oil patties.

Some of the alternate treatments sound interesting as well (oil of origano
etc.)
