It is stated in the body of the first link, but it's worth restating: bees are different from wasps. Just a peeve of mine since I became a beekeeper. Thanks for the links dfowler.

Hmmmm. I could've sworn dfowler left in a huff and asked that his membership be rescinded. However, for some odd reason that's difficult to check through his profile page. ...Difficult, but not impossible. Yeah, here we go. Guess there was a change of ~~personnel~~ heart...?

drunk7daysaweek, were you more for the killing each other's kids if our leader is promiscuous thing? I'm more of a fan of parthenogenesis myself. Wonder if any female bees and ants would teach me how.
