>I know who that statement is about !! LOL Thanks Greg--glad you appreciated the humor! But my statement wasn't about anyone in particular. There have been a number of books published of late by newbee beekeepers--in fact, I recently reviewed one for an author who asked me to check their draft for accuracy on facts, which impressed me (it will be a fun book for beginners). There will always be a market for books for beginner beekeepers. Funny, since little has changed since 1856 as far as beginners are concerned. What *has* changed is how to be economically successful at beekeeping after the first year. -- Randy Oliver Grass Valley, CA www.ScientificBeekeeping.com *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
