Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I agree, and if you send out loving vibrations, bees won't hurt you. Like horses and dogs, they sense fear and it is a danger to them, so they sting. Beekeepers take honey and only get stung a few times a year, and they handle the bees by the millions. I have a farm and my plan includes sheep and bees in the very near future. I just love sheep. Flo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I have not had time to read all this ... having just found it this morning, it's quite long and clearly the person has put in a lot of research on it, but I thought I'd pass along the link. He's included a lot of fascinating history: http://www.classicalvalues.com/archives/2007/04/post_319.html Dede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
